Hmmmm, both me and my brother sat there saying it must be fixed! Lol.... At least we don't have to sit there doubting our knowledge anymore!  .
Shame it wasn't on a bit more but what I saw, it looked fab!

The 0-60 of you 1.9 should be about seven and a half seconds,I have no idea what the 180's 0-60 is, but even though its got 180 BHP to your 130,I would think its much,much, heavier.
