          Wow! thats quite a lot of torque! And with a car that big it must be a bit of a weapon.

                Oh yeah - at 750Nm - it must be really fuel efficient - NOT !

                          Since you were so amazed by that figure Paul, I went back to check the post and the guy definately states 380bhp but I stand corrected on that torque figure, it was not 750nm, he actually states 785nm. Fuel consumption = 30+ mpg average
