Does anyone know about a site that has all or a lot of cars on with details of each cars specifications i.e. power output, 0-60, engine sizes etc?.
Any help would be appreciated :D

Right, now onto my next question.
What's everyone's opinions on the peugeot 106 quiksilver as i'm thinking of getting one for a first car.
However I just want an idea on what they're like in general and if mods are done to them, whether they're worthwhile or if it's just a money pit lol.

I Know someone with a quicksilver and he has modded it really well! IMO it looks great. and you could also put a 16v engine in later on?

Oh right cool.
What sort of stuff has he done to it then? like I'm not too fussed about body mods as imo they look really nice due to having the 106 gti kit as standard.
I'm more curious as to what sort of engine mods he's done to it and if they've made much difference etc?.

The westcoast is the same as the quicksilver though and imo i prefer the westcoast lol.
Says me who drives a 106 saxo hybrid hehe best of both worlds and mine does 74 in second hehe.

Ahhh right.
I prefer the quiksilver, i just prefer the 106 gti kit on them lol.
and am I right in saying that the westy's are faster than the quiksilver's as well?.
And I heard that the quiksilver's are pretty much as fast as just a 1.1?!?
Not sure if that's true or not lol.

I would have thought the quicksilver would be quicker than a 1.1 saxo but ive never been in a 1.1 lol.
Quicksilvers are good if you want a silver car whereas there is more selection and choice for a furio or a westcoast.
Also if you would consider an older car look at the 106 xsi doesnt have the gti kit but has smaller wide arches and the body pannels on them are lighter than the gti so if you would be considering a conversion later on they are the perfect car to do them on.

The quicky is the same 1.4i engine as a Furio and the Westy
saxpot

Yeah, I thought they'd be the same engine however i've heard rumours that the westy's or furio's are faster than the quiksilver's tho?
Or is that just a load of horse shit?.

Erm.. parkers.
1.4i Furio 3d (00) 1360 | 0-60 in 11.2
Thats nowhere near right, I have a video of me going to 0-60. Did it at 8-9 seconds..all I have is a K&N in it, wouldnt do that much to the speed..

Yeah.
But still, no one's really answered my question which was are furio's/westys that much faster than quiksilver's (i.e. should I really go for one of those over a quiksilver if i want more performance) or does it not really make that much difference between the 2?. lol...
