cheers man, my typeR is standard (280 when new) the spec C is running 360/400 and would murder my standard TypeR both from standing start, once rolling and around bends. Dont know about 0-100 times, sorry. Not a fair comparison.

Dont get me wrong the 280bhp TypeR is plenty capable in standard trim but even when my Spec C was standard I feel that the Newage would have still won hands down.

Truth of the matter is they are both great cars, and I love them equally
