LOLz...although not sure the 3D glasses are required!

You are the comedy one! Quote me the comment that said diesel cars are the fastest cars in the world? Although, the AUDI TDI Le Mans car isn't slow! You have cleared one thing up, albeit rather funny. You are referring to F1 engines as "decent petrol engine"...that's pure comedy! If you has...

As I questioned earlier, it sounds like his mystery diesel Megane was tuned in a way that was not very good! Got to laugh! Decent petrol engine? My Mum's old 1.4 had a decent petrol engine...

This is so inaccurate, it's unreal! There are so many other factors and variables that count that simply saying that diesel engines rev from 2k to 3k and petrol engines rev from 2.5k to 6k means a big fat ZERO! You honestly think that what you just said means a petrol car is quicker than a...

It explains nothing.

Well now I know you are talking pisch; Stop every 100rpm? Good petrol? This makes no sense.

Afraid mine has improved, albeit only by a small amount. Depends on what mods you have. Sounds like your Megane was pisch if you were dropped by a GTi. Maybe the tuning was pretty poor?

The economy gets better, it depends how you drive them, so nothing to do with the mods (in most cases). Plumes of suit, this only affects the person behind so who cares. Agree on the sound but most four cylinder engines sound pisch anyway, so who cares. Torque/power - people like what they...

Yeah, I drive at 70 mph max.

Top speed isn't really a concern, for me anyway.

Should be fairly rapid in-gear with 150! I remapped my Cupra to 200 bhp and 300 torques. The clutch has been fine so far but I reckon it's on it's limits.

Me, nowadays! Is nice having torque though. The 172 used to frustrate me sometimes when overtaking, having to ring it's neck to get going!

Not bad considering the cost of a remap! 80 to 115 is a decent jump in power too.

Exactly, all the thrust arrives quickly, low down in the rev range, which makes it feel a lot quicker.

Out of interest, what have you done to your DCi to go from 80 to 115? Just remap? @clio dci 80

I had mine for 5 years and it started needing bits and pieces done to it, so got rid. I also fancied something else.

No contest. Both are Clios.

LOLz

BS. It's actually very entertaining chasing petrol euqivalents and only using 2000 to 3000rpm's. Easy progress.

There is a nice blue (nimbus?) example near where I live. I would have one if it wasn't for the dire mpg!

So why are you posting your opinion?

The 197 does look very good but people who are interested in cars will sometimes look at cars more noticeably.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking! It almost seems a pointless exercise if all you are trying to do is save tax, I think that is the point of the opinions.

How much would that cost? Pointless if all you are trying to do is save on the tax.

Wooft!!

Love it on here... When a dci is mentioned, they are great. When any other diesel is mentioned, they are pisch! (with the occasional exception) I hope you enjoy the dci! I'm enjoying my diesel at the moment. 300 torques for effortless overtaking is great!

How does that not just break? It's pure violence!

Lose the lights and that's a decent looking Mini.

Brakes?

Was it not a shot of torque, like 30lbs/ft?
