Great video and great car. What brilliant fun! As a young man i used to hate brown cars, but now I think that metallic brown is epically cool. Well done sir!

Impressive low weight - my estate is about 1400kg last time I weighed it - without me! If mine weighed only 1250, I'd be close to the 8s too.

Love this! My Dad used to have a Mk4 Cortina in terracotta brown. It was a 1.6L. Not sure on it's 1/4 mile time! Was your car originally 2 door or so you cut it down? It looks fantastic

Terracotta Brown. What a colour. Yes it's an original UK 2 door mk5. Built back in the 90s when they weren't really worth much or appreciated

I think left hand drive helps as the torque wants to lift the nearside front, so having the driver there is free ballast.😮and running 8.7 in the 1/4 with less than 700bhp at the wheels is 1) mighty impressive 2) a true measure of you build and turning.

Yes, great way of describing it. Almost like a corkscrew. When we tell people it done 614 on the dyno it doesn't sound very impressive, but it just works so well on track. Thanks for watching and top comments

@@spottedmotors interestingly the et/mph calculators put the wheel hp at bang on 700 at the correct weight. Some dynos read low, some high. So if you ever put the car back on the dyno use the same dyno as a valid comparison.
