hang on a min...ive got a N/A Auto and its punchy! If you set the mode to PWR and put your foot down you will able to overtake no issues. Ive had my 2 for 4 years with no issue in this area.

I'm down (or up) croydon way. So not too far...

One of the other fellas is really close to my neck of the woods.

Either way it very kind of you and I may well take u up on that offer. If anything it'll be great just to ask all the dumb noob question I have in one go! :)

If you want to see one that's mildly modded (and filthy as hell at the moment :lol: ) then have a ride in mine. If you want one that's shiny and more likely to snap your head off - go with Leon :thumleft:

He could also go both ways :mrgreen:

Mine's also mildly modded, not crazy fast (~320 fwhp), but about the limit for a usable daily driver IMO, well with the setup I have anyway.
