What we need here is an MX5  :y

We certainly do, that would shut them up, as it is a proven fact that it is faster than any standard Mig............ :D :D :D

Or a Leaf.....it's faster than any miggy.........to 30mph  ::) ;D

Plenty of cars faster than an omega. Not many I can get both feet in with enough head room though.

 Is300 is faster. Even in Silver.

But the mx5 i'd need one for each foot, no matter how good it is.

So, am I to believe the MX5 was standard, or was it running a SC.  :-\  If running a SC, I'm more impressed with how close the Zafira got to it.  :o :o

And if anyone racing was in a 3.0, you should be ashamed of yourselves.  ;D ;D

Have you driven one?

The Mk.2 certainly isn't short of leg room.

You do need to compromise on some creature comforts to get performance, of course. ;)

MX5 was a bog standard Mk.1 1.8 IIRC.

This is what confuses me.  :-\ My 3.2 absolutely pisses my nephews S2000 and Type R. They don't even get close to it, hence my disbelief. He has had several runs with it but never got close and it's an effortless win. They share similar 0-60 and top speed but mid range the 3.2 annihilates it.
I'm not bragging about the 3.2 as my 430 annihilates that in a similar fashion.  :)
The Zafira shocked me most I think.  :y

Anyway, not interested in speed anymore.  ::)

I'm not up for sitting on the floor either. No. No. And, er.....NO! Thanks. :)

No chance in this world that MX5 is standard.  It wouldn't get close to a 3.2 in a straight line dash.

It'll piss all over a 3.0 though!  ;D
