It's about 835kgs so pretty much 200kgs off the standard weight, Andy the millenium just has the torque limiter in first like mine hence the lower figure. The standard 9.2 is for later pumas that had the limiter introduced into 2nd aswell, so mine as standard would the same as the millenium.
Then take into acount iv got the frp short ratio box which makes quite a lot of difference far quicker through the gears, but hits limiter quickly in 5th hence crap top speed, I'd say about 125 to 130 plus the weight loss, I wouldn tsay its rapid but its easily quicker than an frp, id guestimate mid to high 6's judging on other cars iv driven or owned in that sort of 0-60 bracket

Hairy muff. What will mine be? It's a 99 V plate, says on my car check it will be 8.8. That right?
What they like on throttle bodies?

I'm dubious on your 6 second claims. Very dubious. Maybe mid 7s at best.

seriously though over 3 seconds quicker to 60? i think thats very optimistic and you should know a lot better than that. perhaps 7.5-8 seconds is more the correct area.

2 seconds barnes car is high 8s as standard
gearbox makes a big difference, dont just look at the weight its through the gears and in top gear before you know it

9.3 it says on internet? 10 something for the 1.6 or is that not correct? 2 seconds is still asking a lot. id doubt it was a 6 second 0-60 with only 120 bhp.

figures are all wrong mate, 9.2 if you read the thread is for the late models that had the torque limiter extended to second, mine only has the limiter in 1st like the early models and is high 8's 8.9 or something i think andy said before.
id say 6.8 or 6.9 wouldnt be a million miles away
plus they are 125bhp lol

wonder if a 125bhp corsa will do 60 in under 7 seconds? be a similar weight to yours with it being stripped out to a standard corsa weight.

not pictured c16xe gsi at 945. although mine is a non sunroof non electric window model id guess it would come in around the 850-880kg as standard. not trolling, I'm not making up WILD 0-60 times pmsl.
