The Viento V8 is a fantastic car that has had
brilliant reviews in the
Magazines and Web sites.
We believe The Viento is one if not the best V8
powered Seven inspired cars
on the market. The handling of this car is mind blowing, this is down to
the larger foot print and the V8 engine being back away from hanging over
the front wheels, so no under steer. Due to the engine being further back,
gives you the weight distribution that is required in a thorough bread
sports car, towards the middle. The steering geometry has been worked on
extensively at the development stage to give you near perfect steering with
NO bump steer. The car goes exactly where you point it.
The rear differential mounting brackets on the
chassis are designed to
accept a 7" or 7 1/2" diff, so Standard Sierra components will fit into the
car as well as the Cossworth 7 1/2" diff,. The most common diff to use is
the XR4 x 4, this has a LSD.
The Viento also gives the driver and passenger
a more comfortable drive with
it's extra width and length in the cockpit area. So no more bumping arms or
half your body hanging out of the car. This extra room also gives the
driver and passenger a safer feel when zooming along those country roads.
We could go on and on about this comfortable,
fast, exhilarating, powerful,
exceptional car. The best thing is to come and experience it for your self.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The V8 Viento has landed. This new car is 6"
wider than the original model,
enabling you to fit most seats on the market.
It is also 12" longer, giving an extra 8" in the engine bay, this enables you to
fit all
types of engine, without difficulty, including the Rover V8, Jaguar straight
6, BMW, Ford V6, and the amazing Chevy small block power units.
This extra width and length gives 2" extra width on each side of the
cockpits, and 2" in the luggage area, enabling a over night bag to be stored
out of harms way.

donor. Sierra with rear

Cranfield University have run a research
project on this new chassis.
This research has given Luego Sports Cars Ltd valuable information about the
torsional behavior and load paths. The University started by studying the
chassis and then they built a Finite Element (FE) computer model of it. They
then verified this "base-line" model by torsion testing the real Viento chassis
and comparing the results with that from the Finite Element computer model.
Cranfield University then used the verified FE computer model to do a series of
"what if" improvement studies. Luego Sports Cars Ltd have ended up with a
detailed improvement plan, so you the driver will enjoy excellent road handling
from V8 Viento chassis.
