I'm green with envy :twisted: Went to order one last week only to be told there's a 3 month waiting list so I aint put my name down yet. I'm definitely having one for my next motor though.

144 lbf-ft is right not turbo in this game ....... but its the way you get the 144 ft as this was the same as my 1.4tdi polo.......

totally diffrent tho ..race sound , handling as u get the power in every gear at every rev once you get used to high revs .... just gets better ..

and 215bhp is about the same power output of a basic scooby turbo with is like 18k or so so is cheap power really

"but it's the way you get the 144lbft..."

You mean revving it past 6000? :D
...well, it's "hard work" having to get it up there and keep it there, but then you not only get that torque, but a supreme power push as well (as after all power = torque x revs in this game). And it's still got it in spades down to 3000 :)
So a little of column A ( :( ) but mostly column B ( :p )... I see how it flies now!

(( who said 144nm btw? :) thats... eh... about 108lbft? ))
