Then lumbered it with a wheezy old pushrod engine and Fisher Price

styling.



The Cinq. was boxy, but, especially once lowered, looked just *right*.



I`ve snipped some stuff, but I`ll refer back to the PAS, aircon etc.....

what the *fuck* is the point in stuff like that in a stripped out little

hatch? - I mean, it robs the Ka of desperately needed bhp, so you`re

better off without it.



Cinq. wins every time for me.

On Parkers, it says (or at least, it used to) that the PAS equipped Ka`s

were about a second slower to 60.

Title: Mansory Cyrus
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 09:44:54 +0000
Author: symo

Un’altra belva da museo va ad aggiungersi alla lunga lista di mostri su cui Mansory ha messo le mani.

Dopo il successo della Bentley Continental by Mansory (che il tuner aveva presentato a Ginevra diversi mesi fa) ecco che si ritorna in Inghilterra questa volta in casa Aston Martin.

Lo stile di base rimane e i rimaneggiamenti aftermarket sono i soliti a cui ci ha abituato Mansory. Primo fra tutti un uso spropositato della fibra di carbonio. Anche se può sembrare che tutta la carrozzeria sia costituita del preziosissimo materiale, solo alcuni “dettagli” lo sono veramente: passaruote, minigonne, cofano motore e paraurti frontale e posteriore. Sul resto della carrozzeria è stato applicato un adesivo di altissima qualità che ne riproduce la caratteristica trama.
