so you turn up to the meet last minute and miss everything, then sit in the car for an hour taking a call and it was only a girl? I think you need to sort out your priorities.

You too mate, your car is in the flesh
Next time, we'll arrange it for 4 in the afternoon
The only cars I've heard irl that are louder than the white one are those ones that get to 250mph on a quarter mile

Fair enough
I can only imagine what it feels like to go up a hill on a motorway and not slow down
Also, a slight breeze will hinder the 54.9HP's worth of performance somewhat.

im not sure how the calculation figured work, but jamies corsa made whiting 1bhp of what the engine made on a engine dyno, which makes me think its pretty spot on

I'm knackered, should have got out of bed earlier and not got lost on the way to the pub. All I've done this weekend so far is drive
Coventry last night, Uxbridge today, whole tank of diesel used since thursday
Good to see everyone though and the grub was awesome at the pub

Good day, sorry i couldn't make the pub but kid and wife beckoned, and i know some people might think the figures were stingy, but i know they matched the figure i was given on an engine dyno when it was run in on the bench, so accurate is my words and not the pub talk figures eveyone else normally claims. hopefully next time be a few more xe's or corsa b's in general to compare against
