Holy ***** didn't realise how fast these were?
Was one blasting about round mine and gave him a bit of a race.
He came off the roundabout a lot earlier and quicker than me and I didnt really start gaining on him till 80/90.
Then I pulled over had a chat and straight away he insisted it was standard and raised the hood, to show only a k&n and a oil breather(engine bay was really clean but the rest of the car was a total state). Then we had a level start from 20, and I was ahead of him and was pulling steady but not much upto about 85(2 car lengths) when I really started pulling on him.
Then the ****er went way to fast onto the roundabout, locked up his wheels and got 2 wheels on the roundabout - came very close to losing it.
I was really shocked at the speed of it though!!

you're having a laugh! iv got 1! if they are fast then you should consider swapping your elx for one of them fast beasts!!!! lmfao
couldve been a puma engine'd one?
popular conversion - 1.7 and about 130bhp
Hes a mental driver for one.
they are nippy on initial pull off but thats where their 'power' stops.
i had the new shape fiesta 1.25 zetec as my courtesy car and i had the older shape 1.3 zetec as a company car for a year.
The 1.3 aint a zetec is it? I always thought it was the duratec engine, tappety as bleep.Originally Posted by webbo
1.3 are endura rattle tops and produce 55bhp in perfect conditions
the 1.25 zetec is a quick lil thing
Ha!!
It was only in a thread the other day when someone was harping on about a 1242cc Sporting that I said a Fezzie 1.25 Zetec would give it a good run
This has pretty much proven it..... afterall, yours is a 110hp missile, so should be considerably faster than an 82hp Sporting
If you have any car care related questions, ask me in the Cleaning/Detailing section.
Cal cant drive for ****, this guy in the fiesta is crazy.Originally Posted by Dêbô
