Just trawling through some Mog classifieds and found this strange ad . Also says that its side exits bump up power to 390 bhp, great ! Does anyone know the 'history' of this Mog ?

Yes a strange ad! A plus 8 with speedster wheels. I wasn't aware that the side exits gave another 23 bhp either, b*llsh*t or does someone know different?
Anyone interested should be able to get the full history from Oakmere I presume but it's way over priced anyway by 10-15k.

Didn't MMC offer options on a speedster inc windscreen etc?
The car might be a speedster with options?
I don't think the added bhp is correct either! Side exhausts would add sound but too far back for bhp influence.

Yes a windscreen was an option on the speedster but this one doesn't have the speedster decals etc.either so a plus 8 IMHO. Speedster wheels are available from Mmc, £1800 plus vat from memory per set of 4,

Looks like a plus 8 with speedster wheels. Well over priced in my opinion.

It's a Plus 8 with Speedster wheels and is ex Oakmere demo they had it at MOG 15. As a Speedster owner I am not aware that side exhausts increase bhp, noise only.

I thought the base power was 367 and there was an optional kit from AR Performance which combined with the sidelines raised it to the 390. Hi flow cats were part of it as well I think ?

They mention at the end of the ad:

"This is listed as a 'SPEEDSTER' it is a 'PLUS 8' with Speedster wheels and exhaust amongst other options*"

Like the colour combination. Does look overpriced.
