Fast People Mover
Puntiki: The Renault Espace F1 was a PR exercise, and it was manufactured by Renault, Williams and Matra. It has a 3500 cc 40-Valve V10 engine, which produces a massive 800 BHP/ 597 kW. That is a impressive 228.6 BHP per liter. The Espace F1 weighs 1300 kg, it is 443 cm long and 205 cm wide. This prototype has a maximum speed of 310 kph/ 194 mph and sprints from 0 -100 Kph in 2.8 seconds. This was always a choice of mine when playing Grand Tourismo on the Playstation. It would be a real eye opener if you viewed it driving over the Auckland Harbour bridge, especially if Pablo was driving it at speed.
Pablo: Nice as a concept car I guess, but certainly not for production. It was basically a way for Williams to capitalise on the relationship with Renault. Such a shame the Williams/BMW partnership is ending - as a BMW M5 Williams Edition could have been something to covet.

bllody nice - like the body shape and the power ratio is right up there also, but responsibility factor for a people mover goes straight out the window on this one
Very cool yellow wagon
If I was driving at speed over the harbour bridge, I could not guarantee the safety of others around me!
It is necessary to take precaution when Pablo drives at speed.
