used my idea yet?

i have another idea for you

drive round without thrashing it

then when all your mates ask why just say becasue its to quick to handle becasue you'vve got that much torque

and when you set off froma junction give it a bit of a wiggle
joba's good one

and you save fuel by not flying around

thats true but with theese engines they'll only ever be quick going down the side of a cliff

to make it even more fun you want really cheap tyres then you do get torque steer in the rain

hahahaha, or get some maccy d's trays underneath your back wheels and drive around with your handbrake on!! you might need some spare driveshafts with you

while we are bashing the slow 1.4 60bhp does anyone on here own a 1.0 44bhp ibiza?

 

[artemis_1991]

Yeah, i imagine that is a bit of a let-down!

Saw one at a scrap yard once, opened the bonnet looking for a relay and instantly felt sorry for whoever owned the car when i saw 1.0 on the engine cover

I didn't think they did a 1.0 for the mk3???? Thought that was only the mk2?

 

[Mat]

yeah... never been a 1.0l mk3 - unless someone dropped one in

ANV or AUC engine codes for the 1.0l mate

Just sell it and buy a more powerful car...dare I say it but a Fiat Grande Punto Sporting 130 diesel remapped up to 180 plus BHP and only group 6 insurance...cheap as chips

 

[Mat]

or a mk4 ibiza 1.9TDi about same figures as you say

 

[Adam R]

litre in a mk3... my god that must have made the owner cry!

my 1.4 had a fair bit of power (as seen by the RR i did) and did perfrom quite well. but its nothing comparred to the new car im getting.

 

[dukeman358]

or a mk4 ibiza 1.9TDi about same figures as you say

Yes and a lot better quality car as well.

Tdi engines are definitely the way forward! Well, the new ones! Drove a 2006 audi a4 tdi a few days ago and it felt just as responsive as a petrol engine, but the amount of torque you get is unbelievable, so much fun for overtaking! Not brilliant off the line though!
My next car is definitely gonna be some form of tdi anyway!
