they're by no means fast at all, certainly not the slowest thing on the road, and I find driving one quite a laugh, bit of a challenge pulling out of junctions and overtaking

surely a x10xe would have shite economy on the motorway? You're forever revving the nuts off it and dropping gears to overtake etc. Mind you I cruised a good 50miles in my brothers and the needle barely moved, mine would have used stupid amounts

never get more than 270 out of the 1.4 mixed driving, not sure what my brother gets out of his 1.0 but it's probably a lot more.
