Nippy white cup
Think its Paddys m8. Think its standard but was stripped out. 14.7 1/4 mile. Very good time, obviously has a good un there.

Oops forgot roamers beast...get the AP-22 on it m8y
Nippy white cup
I would guess that Paddys probably does 0-60 in high 6s. Maybe 6.7ish?

Well, when we did that group AP22 session last year with the mk1, mk2, Cup & mk1 V6 we got the following 0-60 times...
mk1 172 - 7.11secs
mk2 172 - 6.34secs
Cup 172 - 6.67secs
mk1 V6 - 6.25secs
All cars were factory standard apart from the mk1 which had an open induction kit on, and probably what affected the time in this case.
The Cup was brand spanking new, on trade plates, with only about 200 miles on the clock at the time so tight as hell and not a good car to use as a benchmark, but at the time (Aug 02) there were not many about so we were lucky to get that.
The mk2 was a year old, 8k miles and taken off the forecourt, which was then sold a few days later so somebody got a quick one!
The mk1 V6 belonged to my mate (just got a mk2) and hes the sales manager, hence the availability of the cars!
Not saying those times are to be taken as gospel, but we did a few runs and they were the best times for each car, so its if you believe the AP22 or not!?
Done some stopwatch & speedo runs with mine and got low 6s too, but thats a cr@p way of timing it.

Did you not read my comments then?!
It had an open induction kit fitted which was not helping as it was warm weather, shown up more with a cr@p 0-100 time.
Also, that particular mk1 was never a "quick one" and my old 106 GTi was easily a match for it, so a bad example in our group test.
However, that mk2 was feckin rapid, so made the mk1 look even worse!
yea i know stopwatch isnt acurate but i was impressed because i was near enough every time if not better than the quoted 0-60 figures. im not too botherd wether it does 7.2-6.8 not much real difference, but i would only expect to feel the difference with 6.0. it was just a bit of fun. im leaving my car standard until next clio or megane rs or golfgti or well... anthing with turbo.

Mine ran 6.88 secs at Santa Pod using an AP22. Even with the AP22 timings dont seem to always be 100% accurate though, I ran 4 times on same day and each time checked the AP22 against the official timing slips, sometimes it was spot on, sometime not, no idea why, all I did between the runs was switch the thing off and on again. On one of the runs which was near spot on the official times for distance and terminal speed I got 7.3 secs which I guess is pretty well there for a standard MK1, my 6.88 felt faster and I cooked the clutch that time!.
