In BHP from one car you have owned to another car?
I currently drive a 1.6 sport so with mods maybe 120bhp and im looking at getting a Ibiza Cupra R which is 180bhp but seems a big jump in power for me!
So whats your biggest jump in power and did you handle it well or wrap the car up

My first car was an 02 plate Ibiza Chill 1.4 8v with all of 60bhp! haha, was a great car to be fair, now i have my X16XE with a few bits done so im looking at the same sort of power change you are. I handled the extra power fine though, its just alot nicer to drive because that extra powers there when i need it, and it uses less petrol than the Ibiza did

Went from a 1.6 8v mk3 astra to an XE Corsa. When I gave the guy (in staffordshire) the money and started heading back up the road, the first time I planted it I actually thought it was TOO fast. Cue the next 9 hours being the bain of my life.
