1.0i 3dr VS. 1.3 5dr

[deian]

Hello,

So which one is fastest?

My work mate does local rallies and stuff and likes the micra, he's been in a 1.0i 3 door as a navigator a couple of times and likes the car. I think he said he will hire one for a rally sometime. He took a workmate to a rally recently, and he wants a micra to rally with now.

Now my 1.3lx 5 door weighs how much 820kg? and has a 75bhp engine.

Does the fact that (as my workmate says the rear doors adds weight), so his 1.0 3 door is the choosen car. I argued that my 1.3's extra bhp over the 1.0 would compensate for the weight gain.

It's all down to weight to power ratio?

So which one is faster according to weight to power ratio?

Your views are welcomed.

Thanks all.

1.3 5door is a fair bit faster

Lol the 1.3 will be faster. They dont add that much weight.

parkers has:
1.0 Twister 3d (98) 15.9 s 93 mph 54 bhp
1.3 GX 5d (96) 11.6 s 106 mph 75 bhp

it also shows the same 0-60 for the 1.0 3d and 1.0 5d

so: 1.3 wins

It takes at least three passengers for mine to remind me of me old 1.0

Does anyone know the stats for a 1.0 16v twincam because i've looked on net and parkers and can't find them, i looked at a 1.0 16v but it doesnt tell me bhp n 0-60 all it said was 93mph top speed but, i've had 117 so far :/, so i need some decent stats which are actually true lol

15 seconds 0-60 is about accurate for the 1.0 k11 (all specs will be pretty similar), tis what i got out of my 1.0 ally. 54bhp

The 1.3 is 75bhp and about 11.5-12 for 0-60.

What Car has all the stats.

the 1.0 micra is 15.9 seconds 0-60 and the 1.3 is 11.6 according to parkers

as said lol 1.3...

the rear doors dont add that much weight to make it slower than a 3door 1.0. fwn
