Basically a Twin Cam, but often used F2-spec FVA engine. If anyone wants a pretty neat model, it was the lead issue in a 2018 Atlas partwork BTCC series, so they were punted out in millions and most of them are still swilling round on ebay at noddy prices.

The way the B-pillar has been molded with the side windows gives the car a slightly awkward appearance, IMHO. But it's not as bad as the Prodrive Mondeo from the same collection, obviously.
