V8 review on Youtube
 
Just spotted this today. I haven't seen it posted on here before:



I thought the V8s didn't have any air control wheel below the centre vents (dunno the proper name for it :)). However the car in this one has (see 1.42 on the clip).

Early ones didn't but they had sorted it out in later models. :)

only the rover v8 have the wheel because of having the automatic gearbox, all the zt v8 don't have it, just have the V8 badge instead

That's a thoroughly enjoyable video. Seem to recall seeing it before somewhere but it's one of those that's good to watch every time round though :)

iirc that's the NZ based V8. The current owner is a 260's member

Nice video,

A Contemporary SE in Starlite Silver, fitted with a Symphony radio, I think that if sold in Britain would be fitted with Hi Line sat nav. [don't think it would work in New Zealand]
It's also fitted with a leather steering wheel, in Britain it would be a wood/leather wheel.

Anyway, both drivers liked the car, then, who could blame them.

liked the review, that fat curly haired idiot should take a leaf out of his book.

Not sure he was correct about the BMW rear end.

Whilst I love Black olive, and the mark 1 ZT front end , I do like the look of the premium front end
