Highly intelligent but can't spell probably,by the sounds of it my 90bhp saxo automatic could leave you at the lights,which is saying something as a mobility scooter beat it the other day.

Wow. What have I just read?!

Probably put the very few (veerryyy few) people who might have had the slightest bit of interest, off.

Congratulations on your audi by the way. It seems you've taken a big step up to dieseltown.

I would say at least 50% of the users on this site no longer drive Saxos, instead there are some very, very nice motors owned by the user's on here. Your twenty thousand pound audi is just a drop in the ocean.

It's like me saying 'y0, my German whip was 22k new!' ... It was, but it's a fucking golf bluemotion... nothing to shout about.

Pipe down homie.

Apparently muz this saxo is quicker 0-60 and 0-100 than our cars. Which as said, is interesting, given that the eBay advert basically said "forget about changing gears. Ever".

"could you build a twin engine car".. The question you need to ask yourself is why the fuck does anybody want a twin engined saxo over the alternatives? For the amount of fabricating that has gone into it you could have built a mid engined rwd turbo Saxo.. You have no decent way of controlling the power bias with your twin engined setup and it has 2 fkin gearboxes!? Twice as much servicing, double the parts + labour and for what exactly? A car that will kill you if you get rear ended on the motorway that is no more than 260bhp AT BEST and more than likely heavier than the standard car. Oh yeah, "feel free to bring ur lumpy cammed up 130 bhp" if a cammed tu5j4 only gives 130bhp how have you got 280 with 2 standard engines?

In all honesty, I imagine my 106 could likely lick it by the sounds of it, either from a dig purely because by the sounds of it getting gears is hard, and more likely on a track, because I really can't see the combination of not getting gears, and having the weight of another engine / 283mm rear brakes helping it get around well.

That said of course, I'm not cammed up at 130bhp claiming to have 170bhp, so that might swing the balance against me.

Although I can speak english, so I imagine I'd be able to converse with track officials and actually get on the track faster.

Basically that

But the merc is more faster than the M5 according to top gear.

I just can't see a twin engines Saxo you can't change gear in being very quick at all.

On paper yes but in reality probably not

lol, reminds me of the barryboys archives. Barry comes in and insults everyone because his death trap is more awesomer than your top of the range german barge. Point in case being, oh you could not possibly build one like that.

"This is for the. Car infusiast it's not a daily driver it's purely for racing."

Wish i was an infusiast, as i'm not, i guess i can't have it.

seat choice seems odd seeing as its a 'race car'
