How slow can you go!!

Suzuki Swift 1990

During my probationary period at Britannia, I have spent 3 months driving all the different part exchanges, some have been great and others have been awful to drive. I consider it a huge privilege having the opportunity to drive all these different models but this blog was prompted after trying to get past a van this morning on the bypass, my engine was at the highest revs, squealing, a BMW was right up the back of me but my little car felt as though it wasn’t moving! Brilliant, it’s Monday the kids are late for school, I am late for work and I would be better off pushing this car up the bypass. I wanted to see if my current car would be on this list of slowest cars! It wasn’t but here is a selection according to MSN car news.

1985 Suzuki Swift 1.0 – Maximum speed 90mph
1991 Peugeot 106 1.4D - Maximum speed 90mph
2003 Fiat Panda 1.2 – 90mph at a push
1989 Ford Fiesta 1.1 – top speed 89mph (my first car, 0-60 in about 4 hours!!)
2000 Vauxhall Agila 1.0 – top speed 88mph
2001 Peugeot Partner Combi – top speed 88mph
1990 Rover Metro – top speed 86mph
1993 Land Rover Discovery –top speed 86mph
