Not trusted my main dealer after they first smashed my car into a tree on a 'test' drive and then when I first got the Cq they used mole grips on the dampers and left a gouge on the chromed rod just above the seal. Only trust one person to work on any of my cars....me! If it goes in for something I do not have the equipment for I am there too, watching every move!! Especially after seeing this below:

Yes but being a Peugeot the speedo will be way out, Probably actually doing 60mph which is still very high for a 1.0.
Sorry, but with the 107 in 2nd my Cq would still pull away from it in 4th.

Will vouch for that - bet my 107 is faster than my old GT lol! The thing does nigh-on 90 in third....and fourth....and fifth he he
Doesn't sound or feel the same, though

Now its a well known fact the MB Ur q can only do 85mph in 3rd, and the digi speedo is renowned for being a mile out too.

Weight is the big issue with modern cars, bet the 107, C1 brigade are no more than 200kg lighter than my larger Cq. With 280+bhp it can virtually give whiplash in 2nd if you do not prepare for it. Not allowed to use full throttle in the 1st three gears with the wife in the car, she complains bitterly !
For this country I would prefer lower gearing than tall to give the best in gear acceleration. For example 50-70 in 3rd in 2.6secs sounds impressive but then the car will only do 82ish in 3rd, but you do not mention that....
