A 1.6 tigra will NOT do 137mph.

Even though you might think the user name reads corsa_phil it doesn't .
Sorry wasnt very clear, i wasnt aiming it directly to corsa_phi just stating what i went through if any other blokes want to chance buying a tig thats what they should expect. And the 137 was modded and a hill (cheating i know but corsa didnt match it)

Same floor plan. Longer at the rear end.
Same engine, same suspension, same pretty much on most stuff.
Has a better shape and higher top speed due to this, otherwise, pretty much exactly a corsa
I wanted a Tigra, lovley little cars, just always overshadowed byu the infinatly better Ford Puma.

Oh, 137mph in a Tigra
Certainly wasn't standard then. Gotta love peoples beliefs into their speedos. 125mph 1.2 corsa Whats that, a superchip, free fast car air filter, and RAGE exhaust?

I learnt to drive in one. It was the fastest learner car to 30mph 
I think the main problem was the electric window switch was a long reach to get to it.
Other than that.... the rear window is expensive if it gets smashed. As said before, everything underneath is the same as a Corsa therefore cheap.
