Historic car.

Had one for a week once, went like stink. But the ride was awful, so stiff nearly took it back after 1/2 hour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad we stuck with it.

Strong money, assuming it is genuine and has history.

341bhp ?.

It just doesn't seem that much to me for a 4.6 litre engine. I would have hoped for 120BHP more than that.

10 grand for a rover 75 with a load of yank old pig iron thrown up front, some dodgy wheels and aftermarket exhausts in a less than desirable colour.

Whilst I have never driven the 75 v8, I drove a couple of cars in the states with the very same engine, and in one word - pants.

how can they get such a small amount of hp out of something so big?

Only a grand or two more and you could have an e63 m5 v10.

Now, I know where my money would be...

I beg to differ, this engine is rather big, therefore powerful. Each to their own but to me there's something unique about American v8's. And you can always supercharge them if you ever need more horses.

They simply have a v8 for any car, truck, suv... they keep it simple. And they put a lot of gas in it.

To get serious power means spending serious money, it's all about the noise and lazy power. I would rather spend a little more and get a TVR or Mustang (same engine I know), something with a bit of style rather than a dated version.

260 bhp from a 4.6 is powerful?
