After seeing the 850 estates in the BTCC many years ago a mate of mine went out and bought one and they are cracking Q-cars.  From what I remember his only complaints were fuel economy and the fact he went through a set of front tyres every 6 months.

Just tell your mate that motorway racing is for chumps and that a Golf will loose him down the twisties every day  :grin:

The problem is that the race is always the same, its a long strait by-pass then a roundabout and then strait back and the winner is the first back to mcdonalds car park :laugh: last week he challenged my 1.6 driver agaist his 1.5 diesel, haha, now that was funny, so i have technically beat him, just not in his volvo, i`ll have him, one day, somehow,

If you can equal him in power to weight ratio , then you'll be getting closer... he is running in the region of 250 bhp / tonne ... so its going to be quite difficult to beat him really , like someone has mentioned .... beating someone in straight line is a bit easy, especially as he is running a 360 bhp car... he sounds like an idiot anyway.
