well
well as far as all the mags are saying it has 2 x GTi-6 engines
i saw a Pug 106 with a GTi6 engine in the back and a 1.4 in the front last year at donny south, he said he used the 1.4 for everyday use and the GTi6 for fun times

Yes it has two pug 306 GTI-6 engines in, and im pretty sure its 4WD. They was alot of arguements on SSC not long ago when the alleged owner of the car. The car has a full wide bodykit and 19" wheels.....People were saying whats the point when still running 19's etc etc

yes
he broke a driveshaft, and it ran a 12 second quarter without braking, which i thought was a little lame for a 740 brake car that weighs less than my car

heres the post about the saxo
centre seating aswell
as for the Nova 2.83 to 60 come on not fast (Trax silly timing gear mid 3 i recon)
it just has more problems than good runs up the 1/4, its been thrown together, and was crap, so i have been told by will at cossvaux who ending up giving it back to regal cos it was so bad

it was supposed to be 370 per engine i thought
but still, at the pv show, 11 or 12 seconds just seemed slow for a 4 litre, 8 cylinder, 32v twin turbo nova
