I don't know what Toyota says, but Parkers says something like 11 seconds 0-60, 103mph top speed, 74 BHP.

The top speed bit sounds like rubbish to me, standard Starlets should get over 110+ I think.

0-60s done on a stop watch are more useless than the well know Erdősâ??Bacon number :p

Just take the specs with a pinch of salt, its how you use the specs that matters :p

120mph ? Clocks could be out by up to 10mph, although unlikely. I've driven along side some N/A Starbo's and they do seem pretty damn quick! Had a VTR follow me and that thing was slow, the owner said he couldn't keep up for shiz. I wouldn't be surprised if a N/A Starlet was a wee bit quicker than a Saxo VTR??

Yea it was easy for me to get it off the clock although it wont now :p

But we did the test in a mates Staret and when we was doing 120 on the clock it was only 111 or 112 on sat nav
