Surely this is a much better figure to look at instead of 0-60mph.

I would imagine more people are doing 30-70mph more often than 0-60mph.

How does CS feel about this?

according to my subaru impreza owning friend, no.

he said it's all about 0-60. i then said the majority of my driving is on A roads with a speed limit of 70. he dismissed the idea completely.

0-60 is only used nowadays for bragging rights

O isn't a measure of speed, unfortunately.

3cm, you wouldn't 'have' thought dogs eat apples. If you're going to try too hard to be quirky do it right
