he was not correct, lowering your seats will not make for quicker acceleration no matter how small

When I had the back seats out of my car when it was a 1.2 8v (to make room to carry some big stuff) all I noticed was it was a hell of a lot louder. I was glad when I had something back in there to make it quiet again.

End of the day, we all had to start somewhere. Give the kid a break, we all know how crippling the insurance is on young drivers in this country - if he could have a Gsi he'd have one!

Paul your missing the point a bit, when i had my 1.2 8v i knew it was shit slow, i also could afford nothing bigger at the time, but i would never have dreamt about taking the seats out to make it faster.

When I stripped mine I noticed it was more responsive in acceleration and cornering a tad. Seats are actually really heavy in the 106.
