can I ask how a BMW can have 50:50 weight disti? To achieve 50:50, in some models, Porsche (924 - 968/928), Maserati, Ferrari and Alfa had to put the gearbox at the back of the car, but BMW can seemingly achieve 50:50 just by putting the battery in the boot. Does BMW know something about weight...

Witor, thats summed up exactly the experience I had. g

Jilly, it is cow-related as this discussion is (wait for it...) moooo-ving along nicely now! IM SORRY!!!! :D g

i think i need to come to a clio meet and compare my car to yours. had the pug whipped me then fair play to him, but id like to know for sure if mines pumping out the right power. Im near Ascot - any meets/clio owners near by? g

usually Optimax Rich, though the last tankful was 97ron stuff, incidentally. having said all of that, about three months ago, I had a Porsche 968 ClubSport which was absolutely revving it nuts off next to me and could not pass my rear bumper. To this day, I cannot explain how that happened as...

well, im not massively worried about it Simon, more surprised than anything else. but I think from now on i should try a stretch the puppys legs a little more often. that cars power is wasted on me and my short trips - i should have bought the diesel...

Rich, externally, it appeared totally standand, standard multi-spoke 206 GTi alloys, correct ride height for that model, but I dont remember seeing the exhaust (maybe they are hidden like on the clio). In 3rd and 4th, I felt like i had a fraction more to go and I somehow felt that he didnt...

hmmm. well, I will have to assume that maybe his was modded a bit. Or my Clios a duff one with 160bhp. After all, everything else is wrong with it. g

guys what cc is the Pug 206GTi? I had some interesting moments along a quiet motorway with one last night. In 2nd, 3rd, 4th and to an extent, 5th, there was hardly anything in it. I think I had a fraction more go, but not much more until about about 110. We swapped places a few times (stop...

dont laugh, but at idle, the turbo had quite a deep exhaust rumble...sounded a bit like a v8. Well, my mums did, anyway. g

the blue one in the pic posted above has the R5 Turbo2 Maxi front end (which is the front styling the very, very last of the cars had). The others dont have the huge round fog lights, nor the rally lights atop the bonnet just the Gordini Ts fogs but different indicators, sidelights and a wider...
