Ah, you misunderstand, Trevor. Purposely, no doubt.

What I said was the 0-100-0 times. Not a circuit or a road.

And I am talking about the 130-150 hp common rail direct injection engines of around 2 litres.

The point I'm making is the SVX does not have a lot of horses in hand over humbler machinery these days. To live up to its looks and its image and overcome the inertia of its considerable bulk, it needs 300 hp.

That's all folks.
