Whats the specs on this car? my mate has just got one and he says its faster on paper then my VTS. I would usually agree with my mates as im against an evo 7 and a focus RS, but can i say that my VTS is faster then the fiesta?

yes you can. a little bird told me a standard VTR is faster then a standard Zetec s to 60mph. Then the high end torque of the zetec s kicks in.



correct me if am wrong

standard fiesta zetec s has ............ the older zetec s has 105bhp i believe as my lasses bro used to have 1 and the vtr left it i think 0 - 62 time is over 9secs.

im sure the newer shape zetec s has less power 100bhp from what i have read
no probs for the vts
