He said he was impressed with the Rover round the twisties though (appantley they had been racing round a country lane first), he says he was having to give it some right stick to corner as fast as the Rover. We do go fast though lol, we used to practice in our shit cars (1.2 Clio for me and a 1.3 Mk2 Golf for my mate) cornering as fast as possible round there, so now we don't really have to slow down all that much.
JW3 its 103bhp standard actually lol. My mates has about 115-118bhp now. Not bad for a n/a 1.4.
See ya
