I chased a 5 turbo a while back in my valver. Off the mark they are a little quicker but nothin to worry about. Up to about 100mph it was about the same but after that i realed him in slowly. It seemed to be standard but i couldnt say. Who knows whats under the bonnet now days.
Dont forget you would be paying more road tax too. Fuel wouldnt be so bad unless you nail everywhere. Which you would. Tyres are more expensive and you will get through them quicker due to more power through the front. When it breaks parts will cost more. Get one anyway.
Mines got 137k on the clock now. I bought it with 105k on the clock and the last 32k have been very hard miles for the valver. Dont worry about it. A mechanic wont know how strong the engine is unless hees owned one. Mine hit 7000rpm everyday. Its the engine noise what makes me thrash it.:)

Im liking ya tactiks mate. Theres one on ebay too.yours is better though:)http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=9861&item=4519660684&rd=1#ebayphotohostinghttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=9861&item=4519660684&rd=1#ebayphotohosting
Same wheels as...
Mine has hardly cost me anythin in 2 years and its now got 137k on the clock. If you drive it below 4k you will get £80 to a tenner but if you nail it everywhere everyday you will probably get 60 to a tenner and you will have to buy a litre of oil every month. They are a good car if looked after...
mailto:15.85sec@86.1mph">15.85sec@86.1mph- 1/4mile...0-60=7.21sec according to my gtech gadget. Supposed to be quite accurate so i will go by that. It was pretty consistant.
LOl@ 1.2 will beat a rs focus or 182/cup.
Its not happening really is it. Next thing ya no, Jeremy clarkson will be tellin us all to buy 1.2 clio over a cup or 182 cuz a 1.2 will whoopem all. lol
The answer to your question is no! You will realise when you buy a faster car.
