Yep, definitely a legit reg plate and re: the engine, it's not uncommon to transplant a 2.0 XE engine from the calibras into them, I have a couple of friends running stripped out corsas with the calibra turbo 2.0 XE's in that're even quicker! Not being funny but they really are a force to be reckoned with. Yes they might be front wheel drive but with the correct chassis setup you'd be amazed at the traction and the handling isn't actually bad, they don't understeer as much as you'd expect under the power but this is aided by LSD's. I've seen them give some big motors a good thrashing (legally I might add)


The plate makes me chuckle on his car purely because I know what's under the bonnet. Although not as quick as the turbo XE's, still... they don't hang around and although the standard 2.0 litre is not a match for half of your guys' cars for all the little smug drivers who think they're driving something special it wipes the grins of their faces when it happily cruises by with little effort and lets them know it, don't know if you'd called it subtle but either way.... G37 FKD! Hehehehe
