anyone got Autocar this week

[zoog]

....sold out round here but apparently the Cup does well in a test to find the fastest car A to B on a typical UK rural B road. Up against nine others including Noble, 911 turbo, evo, etc.........

Cup didnt do that well, 5th or 6th i believe.

But against the opposition we should be honoured that they took it at all!

 

[Slugger]

Exactly

 

[Dash]

Quite what do you expect from a wee empty shopping trolley. The Cup can hold its head very high in my opinion.

That is very distinguished company: did it beat the Focus and M3?

 

[monkeymagic]

It beat the Tuscan S.

They didnt bother taking the Cooper S or CTR though - ha ha.

That pleased me very much - I read an article today in another mag, possibly evo, I cant remember that even the 210bhp Hartge Cooper S has trouble pulling a lead out over a cup - its the best £13K Ive ever spent
