        The only time I've seen this car is on "Top Gear". If these
        claims of 'nice motor' are to be believed, then my TV must
        need adjusting.  :-)

    Hi Paul,
    
    Well I have it now! It handles perfectly.....its a bit of a revelation
    after front-wheel drive cars.
    
    The car is in Winnersh if anyone wants to see it.
    
    By the way, SGT have crashed their demonstrator!
    
    Barry.

Barry,

Sorry I don't understand. You said "handling" and "front wheel drive" in 
the same paragragh - surely a non sequitur!
