Drove Bertie from Suffolk to Lincolnshire and back via the A1 today. He didn't miss a beat and pulled like a train. I was being followed by a young lad in a Fiesta up a long hill near Stamford at about 60mph when the car in front pulled over. I put my foot down in 5th and he just pulled away from the Fiesta and I soon had to lift to avoid exceeding the speed limit by too much. I know a lot of people are not fans of the 1.6 engine, but I find it has plenty of grunt across the whole rev range and is not phased by hills.
