just did a quick google on 0-60's interesting reading:

2.2 Manual - 0-60: 9.5 Seconds

2.5 Auto - 0-60: 9.2 Seconds

3.0 MV6 Auto 0-60: 8.7 Seconds

Use those 0.8 seconds wisely Jaime  ;) ;D

Propper gearbox makes it all worth while  ;)
I reckon you may be ahead up to around 30mph, after that you won't see me until the next petrol station  :-[

At which point i will fly past the same station with the cruise still set @ 80 and shouting....."Get us a Mars Bar"  ;D

But according to my dad i am a lardass, he was 9 stone when he left uni!!!

Well I reckon the times for the 3.0 are pessamistic, and I have noticed my 2.6 is quicker to 30 than a 3.0 but a little slower to 60 so 0-60 is similar but over 70 the 3.0 was quite a bit quicker. That said I never managed to flat out any of my last 4 cars.
