    Heres the baby,
    0-60 - 9s flat
    2l Straight Six
    Overdrive on 3rd & 4th!
    6 track stereo & electric headlights!!

    £330 insurance, not bad for a 19 year old with the car staying on a main road.

    Cool, what is it? I pay £200 more than that for an MR2, and I'm 24 w/4 years NCB! In London tho, I guess that's why.

    Is it some sort of Toyota or Nissan? And don't you mean an 8-track stereo?

    Edit: Google is my friend. How much was it?

    Officially, 130mph-ish and 8.5 to 60. I've never timed mine to 60 but it's probably a bit more than that at 118,000 miles . I've had 130 on the speedo, but speedos are usually optimistic, so....

    It's a Mk1 Coupe, BTW.
