Despite looking very dated this video road test of an early Biturbo is well worth watching for the nostalga and of course to gain a bit more knowledge about these sometimes misunderstood cars. My first impression is very underpowered but I suppose back in 1984 this was pretty quick........of course later models gained a lot more power

Where did you dig that up from......You can see why lots thought they had lost their way when the first Biturbos came out after all the curves of the old models.

Yeah.....it is not very inspiring by today's standards but I suppose back then it was a Maserati for cheap.......I just hope this much talked about £50k Maserati to be announced offers a bit more excitement

Don't think we will have to worry about that one UM...With the current form it's bound to be a stunner..

I still stand by one of my earlier posts when I said that the Alfa GT 3.2 V6 knocks the spots off the Biturbo but then I do concede that it is some 20 years newer.
