Before i got mine chipped it was 222bhp @ 128k miles :D

So 202000 is well up there, has it been chipped?

I alway thought that when manufacturers brought out new cars they always quoted the fly horse power as its always more impressive than the wheel horse power ;)

222bhp, but was that at the wheels, or engine hp?
mine did 190.6 at the wheels, so if the t5's quoted hp is at the wheels, then my car is cr@p.

225hp would of been at the flywheel
