the 3-door hatch, like rover 25 or whatever it is...
is it a 1.4 16v or 1.6 or 1.8??
specs??
just last night one had a go from the lights & i pulled away fairly well, think by about 80 there were about 2 car lengths between us & he carried on upto about 120, but continued to get further & further away from me...
didnt get past me tho... but he was banging his steering wheel in frustration 
was a private road though of course

Hmmm so most likely the 1.4 then??
or are they quite a heavy car??
Mind, 105bhp is only 1bhp less than my GSi!
