So who is driving both these cars, not what I consider to be fast times for the 1/4 mile (slowest I have seen so far for both cars tested)

my misses was pulling 13.6sec in our 290bhp fwd astra opc, mind you it weights near enough 1200kg but wouldnt be matching times of either to be honest as its 0-60 during testing at Brunters was 4.9sec and 100 was 12.6sec....

well its auto express, could well be a couple of grannies, sure always looks like it when they have their exclusive scoop pics that are budget photoshop jobs and far from the actual product and actual facts....

Stupid test.

It s all about which car gives the most fun at the end of day.

If you are a driver you always pick the 1M Coupe.

Higher trap speed does show that the 1M is faster but it loses tenths during it's launch.
No surprise there.
