What’s good about the engine they rev out that’s about it
and make nearly as much bhp na as a turbo charged gti 
Yeah but what’s the point?
High revs on a motorbike with minimal kerb weight makes a wee bit of sense, but in a car weighing over a tonne minus passengers not producing any meaningful torque until 4000 or 5000 rpm in a country that’s mostly hills just means you need to constantly thrash the engine for little gain.
A 200PS turbo with peak torque at under 2000rpm (and maintained until 4000rpm plus) makes for a better fast road car. Leave the screaming NA engines to track work (whilst being blown into the weeds by a turbo car with £500 remap)
Anyway, back on topic - a Caddy Max 7 seater van with rear seats and windows? Loads of interior space and lots of cool mods you can do to them.
