No, you would not choose a 1.2 LS over any modern Audi, BMW or Mercedes.

Whilst they may not be an interesting car to drive, neither is a 1.2 LS.

I find your comparison flawed.

Maybe... but they are boring to drive and generally crap performance.. need a stupid sized engine to get it going.

Insides all look the same

I like BMW's, they are very nice cars to drive. Ive driven a 316, 318, 320 325tds, 328,
520 523 + 540. (328 and 540 were pick of the bunch obviously) But I like they way they handle as std and the steering is nicely weighted and feels direct.

Oh to add.. they didnt do a post 1996 3 litre V8.... unless your talking about the 3.5 V8... which still has 7 seconds to 60 which is still not very good for an engine that size.... VTS / GTi / GTT will keep up with that.

It wont keep up with it, they will be slightly behind all the way and a spec in the rvm above 100.

What the hell are you on about

0-60 is 7 seconds

GTi / VTS is 7.4 seconds

Nothing in it mate.... granted above 80 its a bit different. BMW's seem to have a high top speed, but thats down to the size of the engine

yes correct but they are called driving lamps and the police cant do you for having them on TRUE! Because BMW call them driving lamps and not foglamps it you got a ticket and took it to court it dosnt stand. My mates dad did this years ago. Made a kunt out of the police tho.
