It had Ł28995 But got them down to Ł28000 with a full tank and some kinda spary on it so i dont have to clean it also stone will not chip it Oh yeah and a years tax. Glad i never got it as i could have never paid for it now and the insurance was Ł4000.

I thought that was fast but did not feel as fast as when i had a go in the cossie. Even though it maybe slower? I donno

Id say its more about the way the power is delivered than the out and out power. I agree that over 600 bhp is impressive but so is the 300bhp and more you can get from a 1,6l engine.....its all relative!

Furthermore everything is dependant on the skill of the driver.....full stop!
