I've been waiting for some spare pennies to post it to you JJ but this weddings cleared me out big style.
I can ask the post office how much to get it to you and if you can cover that, you can have it.

Seriously mate - I'll give you some proper money.

If you can weigh it and give me some rough dimensions I'll even book the courrier

-2 degrees out so was not a good option really ......

Colder air is denser air...cold and moist air (like it is now)
is even better as it is what peops looking to break speed records
look for. So....really it was a good option.

Depends how you film it ...

Hi I don't want to come across rude , but I think that link is a pointless recording regarding 225bhp to 300+ bhp difference , Yes the other car did pull away rather quickly but what speed was the slower Colt doing because to me it did look slow,  it would be nice if you can make a little recording  of the colt 300+ bhp 30 mph onwards to see how fast it can pick up so we can compare with the Forfour Brabus.  ;)

That's some good diesel torque at work :)

What do you have it running at with the remap?

Just a shame you have to change gear

That was just a quick find i had on my phone. :)

Videos took place in last summer and all cars are now undergoing a power upgrade. :D

Here you can see both 300+hp Colts comparing from 50mph to 150mph. Followed by the mentioned 225hp Colt which had to shift earlier due to fuel cuts. But you can see/hear that its gaining on them in the first seconds. After they build up boost theyre gone. :D
