    It wouldnt be able to pull the skin off rice pudding, so I'm going to say no.

    Drive hard it'll skid on a track, you'll probably kill someone trying to commit on the road.

    You'd have to have some commitment.

    Just put at least 60 psi in the rears and it will skid, may not be fast but u DONT need 300bhp+ to drift like most people think

    It def wont be fast and at nearly 1.4 tons and only about 110bhp your going need to kick the shit out of it

    I would go for a 6 pot and sav yourself time and hassle mate
