It might have 390 bhp,but at 50K ,i would buy a litchfield type 20 anyday of the week .The 22b & P1 look far more hardcore & aggressive + better looking imho

I think that would of been a fairer test against the new Litchfield and R205 models.

Not sure why the guy looked so smug after the drag race, i think i could of won with an extra 100 ponies under the bonnet

The guy in the P1 was at Prodrive on Saturday, very clean car
