No worries mate.I have just ordered a brand new 2.0 Allure as I have a 1.6 Allure already.I regret that I did not get the 2ltr ever since I bought it so as they offered me a really good trade in price I decided to go for it.
I did think about a 180bhp 307cc but it seemed a bit too big.

This revs thing is a nightmare. With the Z you can't go above 4000rpm for the first 1200 miles so the limit is really 110mph.

On the way home from work today I had a guy on a bike thinking he could overtake because there were a row of cars in front of me - he didn't get ahead for long

Then this morning going to work at 6.45am I was going along at 70 as I wasn't far away from a police layby where a traffic car often sits. Then the cheek of it as this common

206CC passes by at around 90mph. Once past the danger area the 206CC quickly saw the Z from behind again

They both do 0-60 in just over 10 seconds, so about the same then

Id day it feels alot more powerful, but Ive really not pushed it. It is a totally different car though .... i sticks to the road ... its amazing!

I love it !! I am finding it hard to get used to its size though ...
