It's because the 4 valve heads didn't fit between the wheel arches IIRC.

That V8 could never really handle making decent power, it only made around 300bhp in the Mustang. They would've been better with basically any other American V8 available at the time.

Too tall for the bonnet I think, it was apparently pointed out to the bosses at the time itβll be rubbish and they just wanted to say it had a v8

Oh my, the interior is gopping.
Not sure why the exterior is called 'frozen berry' when it's mainly blue/green. Porsche do a frozen berry from the factory now:

That interior with the wrap
I think I'd like it without the wrap.
Frozen Berry on the 911 gives it a Fiat 500 vibe.
That Rover 75 would probably have done Newt well for a couple of months.

Can't see the carbon weave through the paint, therefore I regret to inform the auctioneer that I am out.

I love the colour, interesting story as to why it's that colour too. Vids on YouTube.
