I remember being followed close by a Pesky Multipla on the way back from Nelson about a year ago. however it didn't have the power to match the VR6 on the passing lanes or going up hill :) and yes, I was overtaking other cars and I don't mess around. it was satisfying that it couldn't keep up with me all the same.

Heading to work the other day and it was wet. The Clio is rather tail happy in the rain so I take it a bit easier over the goat track called Dyers Pass. This Multipla caught up to me rather quick and was sitting on my tail for a while, pulled over and let him passed and cryed.

Of course it overtook you, they go to 100km in 2.6s and keep going to 300km/hr.

And the rest. the strange shape is actually to achieve radar stealth and preserve stability as you breach the sound barrier.

There was some talk of having a Multipla racing team for a while. but it was passed aside as there was nothing else quick enough to provide competition.
Clearly richardmayes has never wondered how on topgear they pan a camera past the Veyron at 400km/h. Multipla. AND the driver is probably eating a pie and listening to Dire Straits as he/she does so.
It was originally to have the Fiat/Alfa 6 speed gearbox, but given it was to be sold internationally it had to be reduced to a 5 speed in order to protect national security.

Ever wonder how they accelerate particles to such enormous speeds in the Hadron Collider!
They just strap them in to the back of a Multipla and drive it around the collider with the rear hatch open.
When they take a break they also use it for the "lunch run".

If you drive without the air conditioning on it becomes so economical that it actually starts to produce diesel.
