    Citroen C3?

    Well the rentals have just ordered one apparently, an Executive 1.6 manual. Have to admit it's not the prettiest of cars ever conceived, but apparently it drives well and it seems well put together.

    I just took a look at the figures, and was a bit surprised to see it's nearly a second quicker to 60 than mine, which is quite impressive considering it's got 10 less ponies under the hood. Although it does weigh nearly half a tonne less than a 147

    Talking of weight... just under 1900kg is what mine weighs - that's nearly two tonnes!! Anyway, I think I'll have to bring forward the upgrades schedule for mine, can't have the old's driving around quicker than me

    Anyway what do you guys think of C3's? Any decent reviews floating about?

    Jeez, 1900kg You better be a light weight driver

    I think my Clio 172 comes in at 1100kg or there abouts.

    I've just added a cat back system to my car, so that should see a few more ponies released.

    Shad unless you're driving a 5-Series Touring (which is just lighter than 1900kg empty) you have the single heaviest Alfa in history.
    At 1200kg empty your motor has more than half a ton of extra mass or 10 skinny people crammed in all the empty spaces.....or a stack of heavy dwarves.

    Erm what DO you want with all those dwarves?

    Yeh, turns out the figure on Parkers is wrong

    I checked the handbook and it's exactly 1200kg
