Will370z Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) Lol didnt mean it like that They are a cracking little car, it used to destory my zed on the activity days we did, just have to be careful with it as im sure you will be. In his case i think he was a little heavy footed which didnt work out so well. Edited July 21, 2013 by Will370z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Congrats on the new car, but its not for me, sorry. I've never driven one but would like to as I can appreciate the appeal, but the looks really put me off. It's the late nineties vauxhall 'V' in the grill which does it. If you could swap those out I might change my mind! Enjoy though, and keep us posted with it throughput the year to see how easy it is to live with. Yep intend to post a 'living with a go kart' thread at some point - the V on the front is a challenge, there is a forum sourced replacement option called a Splam grille but I am not sure, it looks like the car is smiling at me Game changer... I would consider one now, cheers col! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Col, you said its not much in a straight line and I know it's 1/2 the bhp of a zed but its also 1/2 the weight so it still must shift? It must be just as fast and when modded faster than a zed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Up to a point, yes. Anything up to around 90 and the VX will be in front, but after that the bigger engine of the Zed will take over and it won't even be close. VXT will probably stay in front, purely because it'll get away much more quickly and be able to maintain that gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Fair play. I really like these, and i think when the time comes to get a family car, i will get one of these to pop into the garage for sunny days. I have 2 friends with mk1 Elise's, and they are great cars, really enjoy driving them, but I always do things differently, and was a VX man before I went to a Z.
