CD your start sounded good, A little bit of chirp should be just right. Although you seemed to change up into third at you hit 60. Might have been even quicker if you pushed it nearer the limiter.

As for the OP's time. What were the conditions? Dry gripy road, dead flat, coldish? Also how did you measure the time? on a proper recorder fitted to the car or by eye and a stopwatch? Very difficult to get an accurate time even with a video.

there's so many things to take into consideration, its french, you dont know how well looked after its been, how hot/ cold te day was, is your allinement correct, tyre pressures, tyre tread, driver ability, fuel in the tank, end of the day that figure is probebly correct for YOUR car and YOUR abillity Razz if you wonna make it abit faster take some weight out of it. Very Happy

yeah was on a dead flat road, at about 10 - 11 at night, so it was pretty cold. tires are basically new tbh. recorded with a stop watch. so may be abit out.. jus doesnt feel quick, used to have a vw polo 6n, 1.6 8v and that didnt seem any slower in all honesly and they only have about 70 - 75bhp :S

it is hard to figure out why it is slow.

a good service is always a good start.

hook it up to a computer to check if there is any fault code.

check all the exhaust joint, clean the throttle body, check compression, rail pressure.

there is so many things would affect power, without further detail we are just talk s*** really
