Loved driving my Dad's 1981 900 Turbo.
Good handling, pretty quick. Unfortunately blew the Turbo
at about 50K miles, despite always following the manual about letting it
idle for about 2 mins before you shut it down.
really like the Inca wheel design.
It's a shame the're just shutting it down, they should give it more time
to get the deal done with Spyker or the Swedish gov't or whoever.

Bugeyeracer finally resto'ed!
