    maestro turbo

    hi guys please dont laugh, but i have just brought myself a mg maestro tickford turbo, just got it on the road today and its awesome!!! it was rolling roaded at 209bhp and 220lb of torque! i have a hybrid turbo that needs fitting which should put the power to around 250ish bhp.
    the car is number 361 of a limited number of 505 ever made, there is only 104 left i guess as most have rotted away by now.
    its in need of a full re-spray. but the engine has only done 17000 miles since it had a full rebuild at moto-build.
    can wait to here your comments

    yeah the maestro was never the best looking car. it was designed around a brick. best thing is most people dont know what they are and think they are just a **** slow maestro! but standard they had a 0-60 time of 6.7 seconds which in the late eightest was awesome.
