You want numbers? You can't handle the numbers. The RS is powered by a 2.4-litre aluminium V8 that develops 380bhp in naturally aspirated form. But who cares about naturally aspirated when you can have supercharged? 500bhp+ supercharged, with peak power arriving at a mind-bending 10,000rpm

And now the Ariel.....

This is the Ariel Atom 500. That's 500 as in horsepower. From a supercharged 2.4-litre V8 - the same bike-derived engine, in fact, that powers the Caterham. Like the Caterham, the Atom should weigh in around 500kg, which means it'll top the magical 1,000bhp-per-tonne figure.

Going rate is 1 Soul to £500, too many lawyers and Politicians trading there's in, its a buyers market.

Now I could do you a special £600 if the soul is in good condition, but even a saints not worth more than £1000 these days.

I believe that Baldred would pay a tidy sum to own Mcw92's soul dark:

Nice, i'm a huge fan of Cossies and RS Turbos, and a 4WD Cossie powered Caterham would be crazy. You've just created a new vision of excellence for me :).
