0-60 MPH is achieved in 4.8 sec max. and you really have to push it to the limit, red-lining every gear and not slipping the clutch while changing gear to achieve it.
With your 180 BHP and a weight in working order of about 1800 KG, you don't have a chance on Earth to achieve anywhere near 5 or even 6 sec. Anything with that accelaration is in the supercar category.
1800 kg's, your scales are out mate.... :>)

My stock 2002 225q weights 1450 kg's approx and thats without a fat bird in the passenger seat!!! ...
