Looks like the torque is 190Nm standard. 220 in overboost and 240Nm in Sport mode. So about an extra 10%. Fiesta ST is 300Nm (which I am also looking at).

Firms up the steering and increases the throttle response. Looking forward to trying it now (I have already test drove the car and like it but the salesperson never mentioned the sport mode, so going again over the weekend).

If that were available today, it would be the one. Unfortunately, I need a new vehicle before then. Can always "upgrade" to one of those later though I guess.

Not big bhp, had an old Fiat Coupe 20VT running at about 250hp, though to be fair it punched well above its weight. I don't expect 155hp to feel 'quick', but I expect it'll be better than my 86hp diesel clio..

3.2l Porsche Cayenne, 250bhp naturally aspirated. Sounded good, bit thirsty.

The performance figures for the Puma 155 are virtually identical to those of the 3 litre V6 Capri I had in the early 70s, but the Puma handles amazingly better and does an extra 20mpg.
Have a STLine155 and a Titanium 155. Not much difference in handling. Even the Titanium holds the bends well.
