I'm a little dismayed at the bickering going on here. Having said that, i know little about the car in question so maybe the negative comments about it are deserved.
On the face of it, it certainly looks the part. And i'm guessing that the engine does so little work to push the car that it can be lagged up like a hot water cylinder. I sometimes feel like doing that to my 1.4D4D in cold weather!
JeremyInIndy, that coil is a heat exchanger and it would appear to be the fuel tank although i'm sure it may be fed from elsewhere.
So, someone point me in the right direction so i can educate myself about this car and see where the pseudo science is with my own eyes.
