How much faster is the Vectra than the Mondeo!??

Am I right in thinking that the Mond doesn't have a turbo?! Keeps up quite well considering....

I drove an ST TDCI, which, I assume has the same or simular handling to the ST220. I was as unimpressed with that as I was with the VXR. To be honnest, I think they wasted 900cc, they should have made the VXR a diesel.

[Maverick]

Diesel will never make a decent out and out performance car.
