Mike Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 that is very special... very Knightrider. The eighties really were the golden age of design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Makes you wonder why they didn't carry over the digital aspect more for the mk4 I remember my nan used to have a MG Maesto (1981 I think) that had loads of digital stuff, and a on board computer that even talked to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the dates it was made though, it must have been 1983 when it first came out, as it was a Y reg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethr Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Wasn't someone asking what cars could be fitted with a 2JZ-GE? That would be a good home for a GE and a W58. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
