Just driven the worst car yet.

The thing is, that's 0-60 flat out. I'd warrant there's cars that have a worse 0-60 that are better to drive. Think figures like 30-50 in 4th gear etc etc.... the important ones.

Of course I'm biased against 0-60 as a performance figure. My 2nd to 3rd gear change comes at 58mph.

Whilst I still have the Corsa page open, 10.9s for 30-50mph in 4th...

I think my car's 0-60 book figure is a bit conservative... I caned it to 60 along a slip-road from a stand still and it didn't feel as if it took quite as long as 11.1s

downhill Howard???

0-60 is a eu measure - done with 2 people and a 1/2 tank of fuel. all cars are tested like this, so claims by anyone that 'my car can do it quicker' when they fill it with helium, put a thimble of petrol in and get a dwarf to drive it are rather irrelevant, because you can benefit any car like that

If you watch 0-60 sprints done by those not well practiced (myself included) a car very rarely does it in the book time
