14" Tornado vs 15" Sirocco alloys might explain a slight difference

because she has a 1.4 8v petrol at the moment and she wants to keep it a 1.4 for tax purposes, so i thought if she gets another at least it can be a little nippier, over a second in the sport, but the sport3 seems to be more or less the same, so i can't see the benifit if its correct.
there must be other websites that have info on 0-60 times?
its all about evolution, you want the next car to be better than the current 1, at least a little quicker yes?

Why would anyone buy another 206 after already owning one 
As for the 1.4 petrol 16 valve lump, best avoided 
8 extra valves, a 2nd camshaft & VVT = a whole whopping 15 extra bhp then the old stone age TU3 lump, PSA Peugeot / Citroen really worked hard on that one

Hey, don't knock it Mazda did a standard 1.6 B-6 engine for the MX3 which pumped out a huge 98 bhp, then they did a B-6d 16v DoHC which put out an awe inspiring 108 bhp. I had a 1.5 Civic which had more power than both, standard (by at least 10 bhp)! Now that's a poor increase and also a poor engine IMO (and it wets itself a lot-typical Mazda).

First time i've ever heard someone buy a 1.4 based on 0-60 times. A 1.4 is never going to be a world beater, focus on looking at more practical things.
