Trust me chap, Ford’s don’t drive as nice as 450 bhp German M cars…
I’d happily swap an E39 M5 for a 302 V8 Mk2 Zodiac or Granada.It doesn’t matter how good it ‘drives’ if its an economic write off stuck in the garage because it’s too expensive to fix when it goes wrong.
All bets are off if the BM has a Chevy LS engine in it.Although some say ze German chassis components aren’t up to handling the torque of the proper old school pushrod motor.
