What's your top speed / 0-60mph?

I chicken out at 112.5mph (180kph) on my brava 1.6 auto. 0-60 took too long. Didn't bother to time it.

1.8 hlx is good for a touch over 130; with four adults that is! Dont ever believe the manufacturers official time golf gti 1.8t is supposed to be quicker, mates got one, even he doesnt think its as quick as the bravo, oh yea 60 in about 8 with one person! Drive like a grandad usually though and touch 40 to the gallon

Well my HGT....

I managed to get about 138 out of it before mr policeman called an abrupt halt to my top speed run down the M23 a couple of years ago (got a months ban and a £500 fine for that !), I think she had a little left as she had only just got to the red line, so 140 is a possibility. 0-60 I don't know maybe 8 seconds it's a heavy car so I can't see it being quicker than that.
My old slightly tweaked uno turbo was much much much faster than my HGT, but far less refined. 0-60 in about 6 seconds and I bottled out at 145, I thought it was going to fall apart, but it was still pulling strong, could have easily topped 150, stunning little car that Uno turbo, I am still looking for a nice clean H or J plate to make into a track day car.
