CO 2's

Post by afhgus » Thu May 29, 2008 9:37 pm

just wondered how many of these things RS2 chuck out into the atmostphere, being a gardener it would be interesting, as a wild guess it must be simliar to a good old V8 TVRs, no?

Would be interesting to know which one of the new proposed road tax bands the RS2 would fit in too.

Not too difficult to make an educated guess - 315 bhp from 2.2 litre engine at average 20 - 22 mpg is probably 260 -280 g C02/km.
This figure would put it in the top rate for CO2 emission taxes.
