    I've always liked the lines of the C70. My only regret is not buying a dark one again after my accident.

    our Frankie needs to have a ride in Mr WD's C70 around the Evo Triangle and he would possibly see things differently, I was impressed by the way that car handles and now it has even more grunt ( not that it seem that short of it in the first place ) turned my thoughts on what is possibly a very underrated car

    Somehow I don't think it has anything to do with the power output? However if we do get chance I'd like to go back to the triangle again & show you the upgrades?

    ok, is it fair to say the package all works well together and is barnstorming

    I agree that that is a great looking car there Stribo, but i am a little biased. I have had two 850 T5's in the past, but the C70 is a nice change and a really good car to own and drive. Sporty looking coupe with 850 underpinnings, what can be better!
