Yo stealthy,
Is hot down your way?
It's like fricken Burma here.
I just got the new 3 cylinder Eco boost fiesta zetec s, and I must say its a bloody masterpiece.
The nearest unit I can liken it to was the BMW straight six.
I had a 525 and it honestly has the same torque characteristics.
I've had 120 mph in forth gear out the little fiesta, I bloody love it.
Hey top gear is on at eight tonight.
Don't miss it or il send the mother in law around :)

That would be the 3 cylinder 12 valve turbo yes?
That reminded me of the Japanese "kei" cars, specially one that I have on an old (1989/1990) French magazine, the Mistsubishi Minica Dangan ZZ, a 3 cylinder, 549 cc, 5 valves per cylinder, turbocharged, with 63 bhp at 7500 RPM and a torque of 75 Nm at 4500 RPM.

A quick look in Wikipedia showed me that they change the regulations to avoid those mini muscle cars. :)

YES ArMaP these were/are the way forward. like the suzuki swift, hyundai i20, little nissan micra turbo , austin metro turbo, fiat uno turbo, renault 5 turbo ALL these and more like your example were/are some of the most exciting fast fun and economical cars to be produced.

It looks like we're heading back in the right direction with these pocket Rockets.Elvis's little Fiesta 1.00 liter 3 cylender turbo 12 valve been proof that things are looking good in this area.
I love them. :D
