Yeah, the 1.25 is quite nippy for what it is, but quicksilvers are fucking slow for what they are.

Ive drove a couple and they feel soo gutless and that coming from driving a 12v but the fiesta is about the same power wise but feels much better to drive.
Yup, appauling engines in them, the 1.4 XSI engine is so, so much better than the 1.4 they use in the quicksilver, dont know why they didnt just use it in the quicksilvers.

best thing is to say "ok mate" and carry on with your life knowing that he is a grade A bell end.

oh mate tell me about it.
my mate drives a mgzr 1.4 (ROVER!!!) and no matter what i say his car is always better. he cleans it 4 times a week cos he hardly works. id rather save and go out on the piss.
when i mentioned im getting an astra gsi, not trying to be big headed he replied with ''well when i drop my VVC engine itll smoke that piece of shit''
and the face you'll have made after reading that quote is exactly what i did. nothings ever good enough but fuck it hes a gay boy
