Clio 200 for me!
Off boost means he isn't racing 
My Phase 2 VTR was RR'd at 113bhp and was fully stripped out and my brothers VXR still left me for dead with ridiculous ease. And no, the Clio 200 is not by far the fastest. In a straight line the VXR is faster, but around bends the Clio is.

Jambo, spoken to lady again... Steer clear of Clio.
Hers is the RS200 model. Whilst running in shes getting about 18mpg!!!!!! Even in her old 197 she only got 28mpg!! Not a cheap car to run.
It looks mega though. She has this car...


But with this spoiler on top too (not these wheels or tiny exhaust)

no way will your VTR beat a VXR
Have you been watching Slips?
Are you real?
100bhp at most against 189bhp?
Are you friends with Doyle?

if they are off boost then they are not racing
they have alot of lag but when on boost they have some guts
Guys in a new ST off here struggled to lose one from 20 to 70 so how a VTR can beat one is beyond me
was me, in me RR'd 253bhp focus it was really good in the low gears. focus st's don't really perform until they get rid of the torque limiter in 3rd gear onwards.
but yeah, roling start at 20mph to 60mph it was stuck next to me. did suprise me.

1 tank of fuel from Nurburgring to Calais, 300 miles.
With the stage 2 map it's even better.
Corsa used loads of fuel, not sure why.
How bizarre Ols.

It is alleged that Mister Gleave's assailant was heard to shout (mostly incomprehensibly due to ambient noise & the sound from the gunshots) in German, the gist of which was reportedly to do with insubordination and treachery, as he carried out the shooting.
Police believe this not to be a professional execution and more than likely a revenge attack or crime of passion. There is no known motive for the killing at present.
The joint investigation is ongoing and both forces have asked that anyone with usefull information should please contact either the Metropolitan Police CID at New Scotland Yard in London, or the Polizeiinspektion u. Kriminalpolizei, Ingolstadt, Germany.''
Wow!

It's true. Anyone posting in Ash's name is the murderer.
Ash is on a mortuary slab in germany awaiting an autopsy.
