MG F 1.8i 120

The MG F 1.8i 120 reaches 60 mph in 8.38 s (100 km/h in 8.84 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.40 s, tripping the lights at 85.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.75 s and the eighth mile in 10.66 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the F 1.8i 120

The 1995 MG F 1.8i 120 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,035 kg with 118 bhp, which works out at 114 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 114 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.75 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,264th quickest to 60 mph, and the 28th quickest of the 61 MGs here. Its 85.9 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the MG F 1.8i 120 0-60 time?
The MG F 1.8i 120 reaches 60 mph in 8.38 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,264th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the MG F 1.8i 120 quarter mile time?
16.40 s at 85.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.66 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.75 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the MG F 1.8i 120 have?
118 bhp and 1,035 kg, which is 114 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 198 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the MG F 1.8i 120?
Closest here on pace: Fiat Coupe 2.0 139 (8.37 s), Honda Prelude 2.0i 133 (8.37 s), Fiat Coupe 1.8 130 (8.37 s). Each one can be raced against the MG F 1.8i 120 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The MG F 1.8i 120 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
