Fuck off
Defiantly not your current one lol
I like to think that it's an anti-sleeper's sleeper Because there's a lot of Honda's around here with loud exhausts, and a few Jordan's! Which aren't fast compared to the current breed of turbo hatch's, but when you're getting away from a Mk2 RS it is still hilarious But I was on about my past cars, like my last bucket of shit Civic which weighed fuckall with 185bhp

True, but still sort of a sleeper, people know they are quick, but the power of some of them is much more fun.
Sort of like when i had my 1.8 SRi Corsa, some people dont even realise they made a 1.8 and just expect it to be a 1.2
If you see an M3/Evo etc, you know they are gonna be fast. I like the suprise factor.

The whole sleeper thing is over rated.

Depends how you see it. I loved all my sleepers just because of how they made me feel.

Don't think it would be all that quick really, 157bhp and 1100kgs is not going to cause any issues to the current crop of hot hatches.

i used to love when i had the van on the road, one of the best times was when the new focus rs came out, i was cruising along on motorway and he came past, so i just overtook him a little faster he reacted and went to overtake, let him get along side then put my foot down and pulled away! let him pull along side few times then accelerated away just so he knew it was not just a fluke!
guy had his teenage son in the car, would like to have heard him asking y he could not get past the white van! :-)
i like sleepers, its also fun on track days, van turns up, you can c people thinking y is there a van here! after a sesson on track get quite a few people coming over to see it cos they were not expecting to be overtaken by it!
its good fun :-)
