Steve, please 
It's a whole 2.3 seconds quicker to 100, that's more than 10%.

What does this wild claim have to do with the Clio?

i also think the 106 is faster than 22 seconds to 100, no way could it pull a 15.5 at 90mph, it doesnt take 8 seconds to get from 90 to 100, probably more like 5 making it closer to 20 imo

So EVO Magazine, who are renowned for their accurate testing, are wrong, and your mental clock is right?
