No they are 125

125bhp in a 4 door saloon is never going to be fast mate

You'd be better off buying a Turbo Diesel car. A GX Scoob will be an absolute barge. Even if it looks like an STi.

mmm power vs mpg ..........

if you want both why get a newer seat ibiza cupra diesel, same engine as in my missus 1.9 TDi sport leon, about 150/160 bhp so its not the slowest thing around. Ibiza is a lighter car too.

If you're going to get a scoob just get a turbo otherwise you'll be disappointed.

just effin do it
