| Additional Info: The MVS (Manufacture de Voitures de Sport) has been around since 1984/85. Officially the MVS name was replaced by Venturi in 1990. Various engine choices including, a 200bhp MVS with 0-60 in 6.8, 0-100 in 17, a 160bhp non turbo version and a 210bhp MVS 210 was also available. The Atlantique option removes air-con, electric seats and stereo to lighten the car. The Transcoupe was a convertible with a removeable hardtop. An MVS Venturi 300 Atlantique was also built, that had a 3 litre engine with 281bhp and 0-60 in 5 sec's. Later cars were futher refined and had yet more power. A racing version of the 260 was called the 260LM. |
