I dont believe it'll be much difference from the tin top equivelant. probably 0.5 sec at the most.

I checked my speedo against the GPS snooper system, and found it to be reading 17% fast!! That will account for the excessively high MPG reading on the MFA too then!
I don't own this anymore - I just can't be arsed to change the picture

1.8 112Bhp GTI mk1 = 8.9secs to 60.

So the cab is prolly  9.5-10secs

cos its about 140kg heavier (check power-to-weight thread for its exact weight)
