I bet if it was a VTS you wouldn't be saying that...

At best your looking at 8 seconds 0 - 60 in your V5

Saxo - you're looking at 7.5 seconds. Top end no where near as yours but it is only a 1.6..

Did you adjust the beam settings on them at all? If don't then that's probably your problem! Any decent MOT guy shouldn't fail you on something he can adjust with ease in most cases :)
