V6 v 1*2 ..?
- Thread starter Šįk
- Start date
ph1 v6 or ph2?
V6
1335 kg
230 bhp
=175.05bhp per ton
172
1035 kg
172 bhp
=168.85bhp per ton
According to parkers.
I would say it would be mainly down to the driver,and wether the car is putting out its book figures, as 172bhp is actually 172ps. But they sometimes are as low as 160bhp maybe?
Etc etc

300 kg heavier makes it not that much quicker even with the extra power, however it is slightly faster.
Cornering Clio 172/182 would be better as you need quite a bit of skill for fast cornering in a V6, mainly as its a short car with all the weight in the middle - makes a great pivot point for spinning.

In the right hands a MK2 v6 would leave a 172/82 for dead.

They're realy not that expensive. Name one other car that has as much road presence for the same money?

I would like to think that say, on a runway and v6 would show up a 1*2.
Anyway, like said above it has (probably) got plenty more usable power. Prod the throttle peddle and from somewhere it summons up some power and f*cks off.
In a 1*2 you have to rummage around in the gearbox and drive like a rat is biting your testicles.

Please, no!
same money new or used?
Golf 7R
Not a lot in it tbh. Difference is the Vee owner will quite happily not give a s**t, as he/she will be safe in the knowledge that they're driving something pretty epic!
