That's what I thought.
It is probably one of the special 130bhp models they released

V-power, 400 miles on average, very gentle warm ups then normal driving thereafter with occasional blasts around town and 75mph average on the motorway + occasional blasts.
500 miles is dooable I reckon if I could be arsed to try.

was good to meet you and the saxo today dude, car looks sweet but you looked girly aha just jokes sayer.
and no worries on the centre section dude honestly you can have it.
i cant help but think you need to do something different with the morrettes, and the grill.
mmmmm maybe paint the recessed bit anth like bottom half of the car and colour code the grill silver with black slate's and black chevrons.
with the 25mm drop and the anth S wheels its going to need something different up front.
but hey im a tad of a style whore dude
keep up the good work sayer and nice pulling power on the motorway too aha i liked that.

Haircut???? neverrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Honestly I'm not out to set MPG records with the car but it's good to keep track anyway just incase the engine starts going shit. Regardless, I was filling my pants at the prospect of shit mpg according to members on here when I bought the car - they clearly can't drive or can't add up as its pretty good on fuel, as I've found

I'll admit that I actually decided to wash 'the hair' that morning so it was looking silky smooth and feminine
soooo glad you said that actually mate, as the car is going in for a wide mouth, debadging and lower coding of the morettes during april (at least someone is thinking along the same lines as meee )
Then.... power time
Actually lee, I've sorted out with the insurance about the exhaust so it's all go to fit... can you let me know when you (and perhaps alex) are free next and arrange a meet up. If you could help fit they'll be drinks thrown your way and massive THANKS

Could be driving conditions you have though mate. My runs tend to be 1 hour+, 75% Motorway, 25% Town and B-roads. So I've got the roads on my side tbh
Only ran the car on normal fuel when I bought it and it's been v-power ever since, so not sure how much of an effect it'll have tbh!

mega lols @ the obligatory 'what next?' post.
legend. I'm off to bed but I'll sort it tomorrow evening I promise... just give me a little reminder
Induction, I'm open (pun). I don't want a BMC after some not so impressive figures/reviews. I really fancy a cotton panel filter, but that intake ducting needs a SERIOUS fiddle first. The pressure drop along that will be horrendous... I'm expecting good gains just from sorting that out more so than actual filter change. And I think that might explain why so many claim an open induction makes the car more responsive... not the filter itself but probably because it only has a single bend in the intake before the TB...
Do people rate the Raceland-Green Enclosed then??
