fast95pony should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Many of the large V8 American cars are a thing of the past.Most are now FWD V6 . They are not driver's cars.They are meant to transport a family and all their stuff over long distances at 70 mph in relative comfort. Many of them get reasonable fuel milage.They are mass produced and built cheaply. BTW what sort of milage does Scooby WRX or EVO get ?? I bet it's less than 20 mpg . The SRT-4 Neon (210 hp 2.4 ltre 4 banger) gets 14 MPG in city driving where the Z28 Camaro (325 hp V8) gets around 20 mpg. I get almost 25 mpg in my 410 hp 5.0 V8 supercharged Mustang while highway driving. The only cars Tristan has been in is Grandpa cars.
I was given a Fiat Uno Start diesel while working in the UK . In 6 months I only drove it from and to work. Everywhere else I took the train . That Fiat was junk.

Please tell me about the latest mass produced UK "drivers cars".Are there any ??
