Just been wasting some time reading reviews on car survey.org and some fool on there said that the official 0-100 time for the ST is 29.3 seconds and the 0-60 time of 8.4 seconds!!!!!

The 0-60 time may be close but that surely cant be correct for 0-100mph!?
I dont feel that the car is that quick 0-60 but above that i think it pulls very well and cant belive it would take 11 seconds to get up to 100 from 60!
Anybody got some other times?

Has anyone read reviews on there, it well funny! Some bloke said that he recorded 0-60 in 5.3secs and 0-100 in 12.2secs in his standard ST!!! Thats faster than an M5!!!
Such a bad vibe on that site, as soon as someone writes a review praising a car some idiot will try to contest it usally with a 'at the lights' story!

Just had a check and the official 0-60 time is 7.9 seconds not 8.4. I'll have a look for the 0-100 time, but its definitely quicker than 29.3 seconds!

Autocar road tested the ST in the 25th January 2005 issue.They posted a 0-60 time 0f 7.8 secs and a 0-100 time of 21.8.The equipment they use is very accurate so that time 0f 29 secs is a load of b***ocks ! Are you sure it was'nt the Zetec S they tested ?

simplest way is to just click in the address bar of internet explorer, select all the address, right hand click and click copy, then go to write a new reply, and click paste and then thats it. It will automatically make it an active hyperlink when you post. If you want to use the url tag to give the link a name then do it like this...

{url=http://www.mysite.com}Click Here{/url}

But with square brackets instead of curly
