lol no thats about right. My old corsa could do it in 8.7, and it was a standard X16XE. Some people say the GSi is even quicker than 8.5 secs, but i would take that with a pinch of salt

timed using Garmin GPS on a nice long straight road in the new forest. i did 5 runs and the average worked out to 8.7. Got an 8.6 and 8.9 on either sides of the scale. Most figs for X16XE are inaccurate. The only true way of finding out true figures is from my haynes manual. BTW, a redtop is a C20XE, not a 1.6
