Whats your favourite sleeper?

[Rover Repair]

You know what its going to be for me.....

...supercharged 4.6 V8 ZTT with 400bhp and 420lb of torque. Early cars ddnt even have a V8 badge on them.

Mind you, having experienced a Mazda 6 mps in standard form its a lovely motor 99% of people wouldnt look at twice.

Yeah, i was gonna chime in with the 600, up there with the cav in its day, but was it really an improvement over the saph cossie apart from being discreet, for good reason lol????

hmmm, wouldnt know, the royal mail van is very well known, i only know of the mk3 escort as my mate raced him a few times at the pod and it destroyed him, wheels look familiar lol.

My favourite sleeper is probably any classic Mini with a mad engine conversion.

Lots of love for a crazy Mini, especially when there's no roll cage or anything to give it away.

 

[Artoir]

Volvo 242 with 2JZ, GT4088, M3 box and diff... 660bhp to the rear

 

[Rover Repair]

Its not the 620 turbo you want folks, its the super rare 1992 Rover 220GSi Sport Turbo, had a 0-60 of 6.2secs with a top speed of 146mph. STANDARD.

Only 20 left in the UK........ 20!!!!!

 

[Storm]

318is...

 

[Mark_D]

Twisted created a Chevrolet V8-engined Defender with a 0-60 time of 6 seconds. That would take most by surprise.

 

[warren]

Ive suprised a good number of large german car drivers with my S40 T5. Love that the only thing different than the standard is the fact it has a exhaust on each side

 

[AIRFORCE1]

The wife.
At least she is quiet when she is sleeping

 

[Sonny]

Its not what you would call a normal sleeper as they arent exactly slow in normal disguise, but after the work that was done it would def give a lot of super cars a push up the road


My old 730bhp subaru P1 doing a 10.3 sec quater mile drove ther, drove home even drove to the shops. View attachment 53162

Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap.

My old Phase 1 306 GTI-6 was badged as a 1.9D LX. I did have someone remark how they couldn't understand the lack of reek after disappearing down a twisty road .
