OT: Car performance list?

Terry Pinnell gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying:

That's because it simply won't exist.

Feel free to compile it, though.

Like this?

Not really what you're looking for, but I find

has useful info.

Thanks Chris, that's a good start, although many of the makes I checked don't include 0-60 mph times.

Must say I'm surprised that the tables I recall from the old car mags don't seem easy to find online. Wish I'd left them in the loft instead of dumping them a decade or so ago!

Thanks Jack but the drop-down list on that site appears to start at

1990. So models like my Triumph 2.5, Audi 100, and Granada Scorpio aren't included.

You could buy a copy of Autocar. Gives most current models and some of the more popular oldies.

Thanks Dave, I'll take a look during my next trip to the local WH Smiths. Hopefully the road test data is more comprehensive than appears from the reviews on their web site? At

only two reviews I see are the Triumph TR5 (68-69) and TriumphSpitfire (75-80). Nor does the Scorpio make it to the list.

There are two pages - but they do say 'every important car we've tested'. No Scorpio ;-) and the only Triumph is the Dolly Sprint.

But unlike other mags they only give their own figures from cars they've tested.
