quality!!

nice to know the cinq sporting's are soo slow!

also like to know what he means by 'sup'd up' 1.1???

AFAIK they are the same (minus bob widget) as the punto 1.1 @55bhp
well probably because most 1.1 8v's only put out 45bhp or less, so a 1.1 producing 55bhp would seem sup'd up.

and they probably didnt look at punto 1.1's, just the gt and cabrio ;)
 
What you got to realise is that the test was done at about the same time as the Sporting was released, so all that was available up until then was the 899, so a 1108 is souped up in comparison :)
