The 2005 Vauxhall Vectra Estate 1.8 16 V VVT 144 is a front-drive naturally aspirated estate of 1,400 kg with 138 bhp, which works out at 99 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.01 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 9,734th quickest to 60 mph, and the 76th quickest of the 164 Vauxhalls here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 82.2 mph, the 8,811th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
