Funny guy...
Yeah, with no dash, 1 seat, and plates as rear wheels.
Most XE Corsas are about 16-18 seconds 0-100mph.... So they must be extreeeeeeeeeeeeemly slow  They aint quick I know, but they arn't "Slow" either 
PS, my 15.2 terminal was 93mph.... Whoop whoooop 
std xe 1/4 time of 14.6 terminal of 97mph. yours must be fucked mate, ragged to death, or your over inflated ego weighs your car down that much, thus making it slower? i mean fuck sake, imagine the weight shift of your massive ego head as you turn a corner? no wonder your car rolls over a lot. cat c wasnt it?

Pot kettle and black about knowing cars modifications, weight etc
I've hit the nerves haven't i sweatpea. Thats why your so nasty today.
What, no love, just all war? Boooo, come give me a nice bearded hug and take me out in the supercar killer 
Fastest standard XE I knew of was Adam Kindnesses with nothing in it, 14.4 and a 96mph odd terminal. Time was slow, terminal was good.
I've got no issues with my 1/4 mile. 15.24, 15.21, 15.27 is pretty consistant having never driven it at Pod i'd say.
Still, keep firing the insults, anything to make you feel better

its not me that needs to feel better daimo, ive said it elsewhere, its your ego and how over inflated your believe your own self worth is, and your constant reminder that you know best about anytihng and everything, and to consider other people may know a bit, is just plain wrong
late last night, i think moes tavern and myself had maybe ended a thread. it became less abusive, i stated why i thought what i do about a car. you, ego again, dig it up using a page 2 quote to try and prove your better than me
I COULDNT CARE LESS IF YOUR BETTER THAN ME

Sorry im back, got 8 minutes.
I don't care if im better than you either? TBH, its not something i would have even thought about, i don't think like that. Reading your replies skattered around, clearly you don't either .........
I quoted a page 2, as i read the post this morning. If your happy to write it, dont cry when someone has somethign to say.
Get over it. And get over this whole *waaa Damiens got too big an ego for me* thing.

i dont think mountaineers could get over your ego. obviously someone has mentioned your overinflated ego and opinion of yourself before. i mean, i failed to understand the relevance of mentioning you have a 210k house and a bird and a job in a law firm and youve done this and oyuve done that. great, well done, achievement. dont rub your greatness in others faces, makes you seem like a right dick. regardles of what you know, respect for you went right out the window with the 'ive got a 210k house' reply
sorry, if that aint ego, i dont know what is. perhaps, dare i say it my friend, its you that should get over it, as all of us are struggling

ek9's are the best civic type r honda has made, best handling one aswel apparently. another thing that clio's definately cant match honda is the build quality, reliability etc. i would have thought a clio cup would feel faster tho being a smaller car and all that
