Id wait until the test cars have done alot more miles, the one i drove was 800miles old and thats barely used! I will forgive it for feeling sluggish for that reason alone
me too they look fantastic and i know miles plus a good exhaust will mean at least it will sound good look good and feel well built, plus the seats
the megane is a non starter for me as I dont like the way it looks
sorry bubbles I dont like that
dont take offence though as i dont like carbon bonnets on any car, IMO its far to rice
A complete carbon finish zonda is different though
There was a site on here selling one with all the options I want which is everything except the satnav, sunroof and tyre monitors for 14.6k
id imagine if the seats were 500quid then 15.1k is reasonable for a car of that spec
just remember over 8k is for off road use only
12k is literally pure purple
and the more k is not better, in fact its the opposite, the amount of actual light output is less.
6k is the best for road use
thats the main thing, they certainly aint slow just refined,
thats not a too bad a thing.............
I also asked the dealer when the seats were coming out, he made a phone call to someone in sales, they said no more than two months, still dont believe that 100% lol but ill wait and see
I managed quite a good route, never pushed it as hard as i wanted to and only hit 7k on one occasion,
part of the route was on a dual carridgeway, I managed to accelerate to 90 but boy are those gears close,
a 197 that is.
I have to be honest at the start and say the car only had done 800 miles which in my books is feck all and the 172 i drove back in the day with low mileage wasnt that punchy
I'll be quick
like
build, interior ambience, gearbox feel and the ratios are very very close...
Johathon Palmer is a ex f1 driver and now a driver instructer , he own the bedford autodrome and has helped build the caterham JPE and jp1 jaguar track car
put it this way he knows his stuff and is the only real racing driver out of them all........
I agree 197 bhp and the weight with close gearing it should be in the 16's to the ton!!!!
and I'm test driving it tomorrow, so will report back lol, soooooo want it to be good and sooooo know it wont be as good as i hope although the road i recce'd for the test drive is awesome so if it dont...
