I wouldn't because I'd be in an M3.

I wouldn't because I'd be in an M3.To be fair though not much seems to keep up with me in the Panda.

I don't know about this business of low power cars keeping up with big power cars off roundabouts if you are a fraction early on the accelerator though.Given a WOT acceleration period of even 4 or 5 seconds a 350BHP car will easily dominate a 100BHP car assuming it doesn't weigh 2 tonnes or have a turbo big enough to suck in small wildlife.
If they didn't then perhaps they weren't really trying
- it's hard to tell and all that

LOL! Even round the corners? My old DC2 was more than a match for Azz's 400bhp RX7 down the cat and fiddle.And that pesky Panda has daft amounts of grip.

As for keeping Pat in one piece, well I'm not doing bad, if only other people would stop crashing into me!

The newer the car the bigger the bill for it when it goes wrong in my experience.

For an example, buy a 3 year old car with 30K on the clock and it's bound to be far more reliable than a 7 year old car with 80K on the clock.
