Aparrently i drive an Evo
 

Stopped at the lights last night and a couple of wee guys in a saxo VTR pulled up beside me and said nice Evo big chap, bet thats fast as f**k.

I had to laugh, not the first time the Zed has been mistaken for an Evo. Cans see the resemblance myself :huh:

My Blue ZS MK1 used to be mistaken for an Evo all the time L: ) (Blue saloon with huge spoiler lol)

My Black MK2 ZS seems to be mistaken for a Monaro now... I can't see how personally, but I'm not complaining :D

I have a hatch with the small spoiler so i just cant see the resemblance. Ive also been told from a distance the front end looks like a BMW :no:

From distance this can be true for a mk2.

Its the mark 2 i have but i just dont see it ?

Was the other driver in question trying to take the ****? I use the word trying in the looses sense as he was driving a saxo.

He was deffinately looking for a race. He tore away from the lights like a bat out of hell. Fortunately my days of racing we neds in Saxo's are well behind me.

Besides i dont know if my 180 would keep up with a VTR through the town. On the motorway no bother but from a standing start im not so sure ?

The Saxo VTR is a 1.6 8 valve with 90bhp I would hope you could!#

But keep in mind they weigh next to nothing. Up to about 50 -60 from a standing start they do go like stink. My 180 is fast once its going but until you get into 3rd gear i dont think its that great !!

Just looked on Parkers and they are 2 seconds to 60 slower at best and 2.8 at worst even a VTS is slower than the 180!

I wouldn't be happy with a Saxo beating me off the lights if I was trying against something like that! I tend to keep creeping forward as if I'm gonna fly off just to let them go on their own! :-)
