I thought they might be a bit faster than that given the power output.
How heavy are they??

they do feel quicker than they are i think or they suffer from th usual ford fwd no grip syndrome in 1st and 2nd .my mate had a few mods done to his and was 15 dead 1/4 mile at crail i think.
they must be pretty heavy once fully loaded with the leather recaros etc.

tbh i think a 14.5/14.8 would be about right but theyre not all that quick standard. my dads old one was pants compared to my old frs. even he said so nice family car but not sporty...

Edit because of conflicting web info
anywhere between 1317kg and 1800kg depending on where you look.

None of them weigh anywhere near 1800kgs. I think someone is looking at Gross weight and not kerb weight. 1392kg – 1437kg.
