hi nick, I don,t read much into the 0 to 60 times,test conditions, no fuel in the car and a very light driver, not real at all. its how the car feels on the road that counts. and the smart just gets there. today I went for a test drive in two minis a john cooper works and a 2lt auto diesel, the john cooper was bloody fast and hit just over 134mph the diesel was also fast but not so much on the edge and hit just over the ton, both cars would drive all over the morgan, in the end went for the oil burner as it was auto and her in doors wanted auto, pity i wanted the JCW car. michael
