...a Nissan Primera that is, because according to the website of the font of all accurate knowledge, Parkers, certain phase one models achieve 180mph, whereas certain others will top 198mph (including a 2.0 Diesel).

They're also preferred to Alfa Romeos, even by those die hard Alfa Romeo fans (whom probably cannot resist a come back to posts like this).
Welcome back!
Dude, seriously, and this is coming from someone who is proud of his immaturity, grow up ffs :)
Aye seconded :) Where you bin at Jack?
NOOOOO
Rover J-M reg 420 Ti SALOON. Looks like a grandad car but has 200BHP on tap.
Aye, I've always fancied one of those; they're pretty rare (although not as rare as the 220 Turbo), and ever so slightly understated, plus they use slightly better pistons than the 600ti and weigh less, so you're getting down into the 6s for the 0-60 traffic light sprint.
They still however, don't manage 198mph with 75 throbbing BHP of diesel power, like the Primera does!
As an aside, anyone fancy my 216 GTi Twin Cam - I've just gone off on a
200SX Turbo (1) tangent, and need rid.(1) Please post all comments regarding the impending doom that is blown engines / turbos / bank balance, here:

Yup, and a 220 Turbo (three door hatchback shell, rare as rocking horse dung)
-- JackH
They did a 420Ti as well?
Peter
Because 6 members have left feedback? Is it really that complicated? :-P
-- Chet
Nah, that's not rare at all these days, loads on ebay:
Peter
Apparently he can 'gift rape' it, which is a little worrying.
Multiple feedbacks from the same user only count as 1. You can sell the same thing 3000 times to your mate - your feedback ain't going to increase....
Heh, joking aside though, all the totals say 12, apart from the overall feedback score. Weird.
Peter
Ok, 'rare as hens teeth' then
-- JackH
Ah - didn't know that.
Funny though, because in the past when I've had a nose around people's feedback profiles, I've seen repeat feedbacks from a buyer that's bought something else off the same seller, with a "thanks again" type message along with the positive feedback, and I thought that the totals (positives - negatives) still added up. Suppose I wasn't looking properly.......
Peter
You can bet they'll be coming soon on ebay :-)
Peter
See, i was right :) was disappointed when i didn't reach 50 with my last few auctions!
-- Chet
No.
They did do a 420GSi Turbo tho...
No such thing ! There is a 400 GSi Turbo with the same 200bhp engine, but the only TI in Rover's range is the 600.
There's a lot more 200 Turbos than 400 Turbos around :)
Only in the *VERY* early cars. '93-ish onwards all use the same pistons as the TI.
Yep.
