I know its only 8bhp, but with the smoother rev range, increased torque etc, you do feel its a lot more that 8bhp. I suppose it depends what people want, massive bhp is not for everyone. I personally like the increase torque from 2000rpm.

Lazy lock, key in the drivers door turn to the lock position and hold, all windows and sunroof close, lazy vent is the polar opposite. One shot open and close on drivers window only if fitted with anti trap. Brian |

Ive just been reading back a bit and was wondering does anyone know why the cars left the factory with not so good power delivery/smothness, flat spots or sluggish throttle responce. I can inderstand resticting the BHP and torque for CO2 and tactically placing it lover than the V6's, but so many people have mentioned that even puting the mg zt on the r 75 improves it vastly.
