Last night in south Yorkshire

Just came across this on another forum, it would appear he's quite impressed.

Last night a friends brother was driving me home from town.
Hes got an old shape Fiesta, with blacked out windows and nice exhaust.
We spotted a modified Micra and knew it was some lad who lives near us.
It was black, blacked out windows, big exhaust, nice alloys, best Micra ive ever seen.

We went off a round-a-bout onto a dual carriageway and then afew seconds later the shot past us.. we were both in shock.
My friend wasnt hammering it but still it went past so fast!

We were debating whats the engine etc but i looked on Parkers today and you can get 1.6 engines in them!

The 0-60 is only 1.4 seconds slower than our ST's to!
Quite suprising as you think Micras are slow cars. Dont think it would of beaten my Fiesta though
 
IN my own 'tests' 1.2 micras seem faster than corsas, fiestas clios of similar engine capacity. SO i'm not surprised.

When not driven by dithering old gits they're quick cars.

The fester ST is a 2.0 150bhp which is pretty crap performer for it's size
