0-60 in them stock was about 4 seconds but it wasnt; a production car liek the maclaren is.
But yes its feckign quick but top speed isn't anything to exctiing. |

im happy with that for the for the money.
rather spend what i did on a clio, that dose that time
then half a million on a mclaren.
unless i had the money to burn.
i dont actually like the mclaren actually.
same as ferrari's lambos etc.
just to exotic for me.
can never pull up along side one and think
"wow, hes cool"
more like "wow, hes a pompus twat" |

yes but then you could have spent £100 on a 16V and gone faster than the clio in a better car. Even incl insurance it would still work out cheaper than the clio and insurance. |

but the scarey thing was these things were designed to have that kind of performance on gravel rally tracks not suprising they killed of group b, and group s was even more exotic, still it is one fantastic car . |

Makes a change from it being me! Although having said that the only grief I've been getting has all come from the same person who for the purpose of keeping the peace shall remain nameless.... |
