I am Amazed , the f**kin thing kept up with me on the motorway, i could not loose it. ?????

I was faster taking off, and did slowly leave it behind, but i should have surely have left if for dead ???

D does mean diesel right?

 

yeah diesel. they are no slouch, dont know the exact figures though.

 

my brother in law got one.fast as fcuk.pulls like a bitch from low down.

 

Had the same experience, left it a little at first, but it kept up very well, especially for a diesel. Tis an ugly looking fecking in my opinion tho

 

Fast, but not anything fantastic. If it was a bang up to date one, perhaps they've made some improvements. My little Saxo VTS used to be pretty much on a par with them to 130mph, so the S should sh*t on them if VTEC is used properly. If not they'll monster or at least equal you.

 

they can be chipped to 280 ish bhp and 400ft/lb

Std is 200 ish bhp and 300ft/lb iirc

theres a twin turbo 535d too now

 

530's can be chipped to 260bhp and 500lbs torque i think,same as the new 535d twin turbo.too ugly and too big tho.

 

S2000 = power, 530D = torque.

In most everyday driving situations, torgue is much more usable and accessible than power.

 

would that mean that the 330D would be even faster than the 530D since it's probably lighter?

 

It is almost impossible to leave cars with decent power for dust on the motorway/staright roads and even most modern cars IMO. There is hardly anything in it and unless you have some serious horsepower I would stick to losing them on twisty roads. I once almost kept up to the back of an CL500 when I know how much more power they have but an SL55 destroyed me and I thought that I had put reverse gear on by mistake! That is the difference in power that I am talking about.
