With little more than 500kg to push along, the 135bhp that the Seven 270 packs quietly delivers an unexpected but satisfying thump.
To put the wily power of this little assassin into context, your average family hatch would need 350bhp under the bonnet to match it- even then, it would come a cropper when it came to stopping or turning corners at any speed.
The Seven 270’s agile frame lets it sneak around in the performance pack, and with enough power to get the job done – 0–60mph in five seconds – it can leave much of the opposition for dead, without the enemy ever knowing it was there.
It will do it all with an understated sense of style.
