Not really that interesting I know, but some of the comments / stats make me laugh...

Jules.

Hehe, a certain amount of pub-power figures in there

85mph in second

I love these comments: "If you think that in a 70mph roll-on a 230 lb/ft Fiat would 'easily have' a 430 lb/ft 535d, you are seriously deluded."

Makes owning a 'wallet raper' soooo much fun.

Isn't welshbeef on here?

Erm... "Remember its a 5 speed box and 5th is 26.28mph/'000rpm so at 7250rpm then it has a theroetical top speed of 190mph and if you could rev it to the cut out 7500rpm then a theroetical top speed would be 197mph"

Standard rev limit is 6800.

not his obviously

Well lets hope he's not using standard internals.

I'll put this straight when I get home I have LOTS of numbers for all of these cars.

Give them the full statistical treatment, herr Trapmeister. Hold NOTHING back.

Buggrit, I didn't have time last night and the work filter won't let me use personal emails... I can't register!

The message is all ready to go though...

Well I've posted up some numbers but it is bloody tough making it readable. why can't websites use excel for decent charts...

Even their smiles are a pain in the arse. No matter where the cursor is, yours is deployed right at the bottom

I've also put my 2p in, should have more accurate info to go on now.

I think the OP on PH is a litle confused by the M3 Evo comparison. IIRC they tested 0-60 and 50-70 in TOP gear. Not a rolling start through the gears

I find it hard to believe that a GTEC'd Coupe would wave bye bye to a 320odd M3.

118mph in 3rd was he being pushed by the 535d?
