my own vote was 101-125 was surprised as hell when i read the owners manual that the 90's E-class was 1575 KG, i'd thought it was way closer to the 2k mark.

There'll be a biker in soon with 1000.
Just checked mine and they're 800 and 920.

So someones will break the 1 to 1 ratio. smile

140bhp, 500 or so kg, so about 280bhp/tonne.

Which is nice.

My history reads thus:

Mondeo (4WD 2.0) - 96.5bhp/ton
Escort (1.6) - 82.4bhp/ton

And currently:
Audi A4 (2.6) - 117.2bhp/ton.

Which is decent enough for now smile

Previous car, around 210bhp/ton. Current car 85bhp/ton!

But it's all about fuel economy these days. God my life's dull.
