Anyone seen this car before?

Just scoping the Autotrader (as I'm inclined to do after a beer or two) and came across this V6, followed the link in the ad .....

IMO a bit OTT, but someones been busy.... and apparently a 150 bhp nos shot into a v6 will go!

That was my 1st thought :scholar:

Looks like that Galant that POTN( (i think name =) had at their stand in 2004.

Some wildly innacurate claims being thrown about there!
"Std 190bhp lump" (states 200bhp elsewhere), Hmm wonder where my std V6 has hidden its other 37bhp then?
"with mods should be pushing 325-350bhp" Without any blowers I DONT THINK SO!! I didnt realise painting the engine cover red could add such power!
Top speed 175mph, hmm im not aware of a VR4 even going that fast.

thanks, but no thanks.

Oh and the mesh on the grilles shouts CHAV!

Is't that and 2.5 ST or STR.

GLY signature box has his on there. Same engine cover and inlet manifold if i am not mistaken. So that makes it none turboed.

How can you tell?
Looks like a std V6-24, only difference is an STR is 4wd. Looks like a super VR4 steering wheel, but if its a UK spec car it wont be an ST as they only came in on imports.

What he said! /yes

[BraindG]

Here we go! i found the bloody thing!!..

Twas 2003 i seen it..

[Beastlee]

I think the values are based on the Nitrous kit aren't they? 330bhp whilst it was running 150bhp sot of NOS would be more believable.

It was for sale on e bay last week starting at 3.5k.

I've been struggling to remember what the car at the top of me reminded me of, without the front vertical dividing bit in the grill, and I've finally remembered - Daniella Westbrook!
