Those fitted with the Honda V6's were the cream, virtually silent, totally reliable, comfortable and swift in a poised refined way, not a car for hooligans.

Go back to P5's and 6's with the 3.5 V8 and that was motoring heaven.

If they'd stayed in business i'd probably have a 75 by now...though preferably a RWD with the V8.

honda v6 yep lovely,once put one through the block with a misfire, so i could get away with it i took the plug lead off filling it with paper and putting it back on the plug, this way although only running on 5 it wasnt popping through the exhaust
anyway trader i knew realised it was mine waited until it was under the hammer and got the driver to rev it
fortunately the buyer was a wazza so didnt understand and bought it

Agreed apparently having the weight sat on one spot of the tyre for a long period will weaken it. My wife had a blow out on the motorway due to this and wrote the car off and a work mate did substantial damage to his caravan for the same reason.

Glad someone mentioned that.
I bought a car that had been sat for under a year, started everynow and again but never moved.
After a few weeks I'd found odd times it would roll or wallow slightly at low speed.
It wasn't untill one day I was rolling in a queue to come off the motorway and both rear wheel must have been perfectly aligned as I could not only feel the rear of the car pitching up and down, I could also see what was happening relevant to the car next to me:rotfl:

2 new tyres later, fine.
