[mikey123]

I've got a 1.4 8v mk2 ph1 clio and i had a test drive in the 03 ph2 16v, dosent seem to be any diffrence in speed? Should it not be a lot faster seeing as it has like 15bhp more??

75 bhp vs. 98bhp.

The low end torque is really good on the 1.4 16v but its flat towards the middle and high end torque so nothing happens!!
Good for overtaking and the likes but crap for motorway driving

Will do until I decide I want a change of car!
