I would like my car having 180+ bhp, i have the 2000 model which has 90 bhp.(i have to note though that sometime i read in the past that this engine could be tuned to perform better than this so ok let's say i could have 20-30 bhp more, plus reliability...But i am still not having a performance car.) But on the other hand i am wondering that: isn't it quite risky to start modifying it and push the engine to its limits and reducing its reliability and life time in order to reach the 200 bhp? (I wish someone proves me wrong,but here in greece for example we have some examples of people who modified engines and finally they burned them.) Besides when their VTR will start burning oils and their horses start escaping one by one from the bonnet, making their car a good candidate for scrapping, our cars will keep running and running smoothly like they were new.And then i can tell you for sure that they are not going to laugh at us.Nor they can laugh at us now. Just put their saxo beside the MK1 styling, will they laugh?
