Re: Bill Gates

Yup even in sports mode.
I'd put my foot down, and wait, and wait, and whooooosh it would fly, but it just seemed to take an age.
I owned a Xantia 1.9TD so I was used to pretty instant oomph when I put my foot down.

I think the astra had a 1.4 or 1.6, waaaaaay too underpowered.
It was back when I had a company car and if I was unlucky the auto was the only courtesy car they had. In the end I'd ask for their combi van as it had better performance!
