    Love it! That little whistle when changing gear has just taken me back 30+ years!
    Bet that's a lovely vehicle to drive as well.
    Thank you.

      @@andypreston1524 - yes Andy it was either 168bhp at 2,000rpm or 175bhp at 2,200rpm. The torque at both outputs was 475 lb/ft at 1,300rpm. Hope this helps
