I have the 140 tbh it keeps up with most cars and I don't feel like I'm missing out huge power wise
At the end of the day I do a lot of mileage so it works out cheaper for me and the cheap tax is always a plus

Update - looks like it was a 140 BMT, hmm.....
Surly if it was a 170 it would of been similar to your 170 roc for performance

The worrying thing was it was a heavier CC and a 140 - but still felt similar to my 170 Roc.....

If it was a rental car it'll probably have been thrashed from day one!
There's only one thing faster than a rental car - and that's a Mercedes Sprinter in the outside lane!
