anyone know the standard spec for a Rover 25 1.4 84 bhp and 103 bhp? would be very interested to know the difference??

The 103PS is 10.3 and the 84PS is 11.2.

So there is not a big massive gap between them but enough. Whats more intresting is the diffrence in torque between them.

Both from memmory but I am sure they are correct. If they are not sombody will be along to correct them.

pretty much all performance figures (apart from maybe bhp) are nearly always conservative.

My old corsa's official 0-60 was 14.0 and I could do it in about 12.5 and when I got my SDi parker's said it would take 9.8 to do the sprint but I managed it once in 8.2! (before I put my fat tyres on it!)

they'll both be faster than those figures but I dunno how much faster than each other they'll be...

Well the only difference the 1.4 has across the range is trim level. Fair enough air con could add a difference in weight, but different coloured carpets or material for seats making me a second faster??? Would be nice to think so
