Getting Used To It

[Tyke]

Well after having the C1 for a few weeks now im getting more used to its ways and ive noticed you learn to sit more riged and brace yourself when giving the C1 some stick through corners and roundabouts e.t.c

When i first got it i noticed it tended to throw me about a bit as i dident know how to sit right in it and balance myself.

I was going down a dual cairrage way and overtaking a couple of cars and i was astounded that i was doing 90 m.p.h in it and it felt more like 65/70.

Doing 30 in it feels oh so slow.

Anyway ill see how she fares on a 80 mile motorway jaunt and hopefully the road noise wont be too loud, and if it is ill just turn the cd player up :lol:

I know what you mean! I got my C1 in February and the first time I drove it was a motorway journey from Colchester to Nottingham, and it faired ALOT better than I could have freamed of on the motorway. The car cruises very comfortably at 70-80 and I too was shocked when I saw the car doing over 90 without realising it!

 

This week will see me making the trip from Essex to Wolves and then onto Wales, and I know for sure the C1 will be up to the challenge.

 

Obviously, it excels in the city, and myself being rather cheap, love the ecconomy I get from the car!
