After being a familiar site up and down the Thames Valley for more than 25 years, the days of the Class 165/166 Turbo units in the area are drawing to a close (although for how much longer they will hang onto the Oxford - Didcot section is open to question with electrification currently on hold).
There are very few of the units left in FGW livery, most are now in gWr green. Garish it may be but the FGW scheme certainly stands out as a contrast against the summer foliage

For 20 years, Franco Sbarro is sharing his expertise with young people in its various schools. For 20 years, Dominique Chapatte is sharing his passion for the automobile in one of the oldest french TV mag: Turbo. A simple phone call between the two men led to celebrate this anniversary common: the Turbo S20 roadster was born.
The design began, as always in Espera, by a specification, then sketches, drawings, ideas. Gradually, the idea of two-seater roadster has become. A model was made and the colors chosen (gray matte and gloss red).
The issue then is the transition to real model. To do this, Espera students have changed tubular chassis from a 1985 Isdera, in which they placed in a central position, a Mercedes AMG V8 developing 350 horsepower, associated with a manual 5-speed. The front lights were taken off on a Smart and taillamps from a Fiat Seicento.
By 4 months, the Turbo S20 was ready. A beautiful roadster, which of course took all the honors in the broadcast Turbo M6. During the test, it appeared that the Turbo S20 behavior was very healthy despite the limited time students have had for the design and manufacture.
The Picasso Cup impressed me greatly. The Turbo S20 strike even harder. Sbarro and his students did not have to meet specifications from a large manufacturer which often requires the recognition of the original model. There, all started from a blank sheet. And the result is superb. A car that deserves a building in small series. The Turbo S20 is also one of the last cars to leave their homes in Pontarlier Espera, the structure has moved to Monbéliard witha little different spirit.
Never gets boring,even in this generic silver colour.
