Im still living thanks . I did a very bad thing tho
I went and passed my car test and got a car (lupo 1.4) and have no sv :0 . My car is slow and i hate it sooo much :@ . I need something with power, had car 2 weeks and want something different

Ok i lied about the ferrari mr2 lambo carboard car . It was a lamboghini and i did smoke him from lights . Yes he was up my stinky . I leave him on next lights . Pulled up and waited for round 2 . Then did it again . So therefore i win. Dam i need a bike with a go pro

A magic go pro to boot.

Unfortunately 0-60mph sprints are pretty rare and the SV probably would loose to anything much faster than a diesel Mondeo starting from 40mph!

But that is all beside the point, the motorcyclist is still the one going home with the bigger smile on his face!

Will second that. Live in footbller/Kerry Katona territory in Cheshire and can testify that an SV will beat almost all exotica from a standing start, even with 17st on board.

However, at motorway speeds an SV is comparable to a sporty turbodiesel. A ditsy colleague's Boxter S had the better of me from about 60 onwards, much to my dismay.

I too can contest that I once found myself struggling to pull away from a megane sport on my sv! Off the lights though, not much keeps up.

If motorway roll on top trumps bothers you, get a zx14 or something!

Get a litre plus sports /sports tourer, not many cars will come even close, only hyper cars will be in the same league.

My sprint was super smooth, power band was nice and didn't drop off until doing really silly speeds, 140 plus.

I found the SV fine up to about 100 if the gearing was used correctly, but it did run out of puff a bit then.
