Isn't a big part of why people love it, because it's a challenge? Like a 911?
Yes.
I got very bored with my 172, it soon became just too similar to the Saxo VTS. Handled well but I felt they were just to secure and forgiving. Perhaps I should have waited for the hedge hugging cup version?
Thankfully the v6 came along at the right moment, the danger factor was resumed.
The MK 2 v6 is a tad lifty 160+ but I believe a wee front spoiler helps this a bit and I'm still looking around for something that looks half decent.
160+ ?
MERCEDES CLS AMG
160 + my shitter
160.6mph GPS and still had 400RPM to go ya FA NNY!
Even on std suspension the vee handles better than the 172...I've no confidence in my 172...Understeers like a PIG! It's slow till 5k then it torque steers! Will be gone in march/april time.
At the end of the day even if you test drive the car, it's not urs, there NO way you can fully understand the limits of the car. Very few people on here are in a position to comment which is why i get a bit pissed off.
Warren ur included, driving round Brum at 30 in the rain gi'in it Jean Ragnotti moves does not give u a valid opinion!
I'll take you for a spin next yr at the ring, then you can make a comment!

You must be the most passionate and protective person about a car that i have ever met
You are one of the few that has experience of both,so your opinion must count for something.

lol! It's a Hypercar what can i say!
Nippy white cup
The mk2 must be a hell of a lot faster than the mk1 top end then...I remember Matts MK1 taking an age to struggle to 150 on the speedo! so 160 mph gps must have taken from here to the ring to get to!

not really mate, was sitting about 100 anyway, then hit the restricted and dropped to 5th and went for it. No more than a couple of miles! Then the Trevor scremed past about 175+ Oh the noise.
Having had 2 172's and a 182 before the vee I can safely say the 1*2's were more fun to throw about down a back road, but to say the vee doesnt handle at all is crap tbh.
The vee is faster in a straight line it doesnt handle any worse for me in the dry the wet however u just cant go fast or it will kill you. Anyway the looks and sound are enough to want one over a 1*2.
If you wanna talk about handling my 500 quid xsi 106 was better than any 1*2 I have owned!
Differenrt cars for different people.

Thats a more level comment. The Vee has sooo much grip, but when it lets go (in 99% of peoples hands) its a problem.
Only coz u were hoggin the outside lane otherwise I would have been by lol
