0-100-0mph - the perfect run - by Autocar.co.uk

[DSievers04]

rather impressive little vehicle. wish it weren't so expensive. 53K base price. but hey if you wanna play you gotta pay.

[JoeCGrant]

How does 06:07 + 04:21 equal 11:03.

Surely it's 10:28.

[TheTycarroll]

@JoeCGrant

the times from 0-100 (6.07) and 100-0 (4.21) might have been timed separately just to let you know how fast it could go if you nail the time between acceleration and braking so it took him an extra (0.75 sec) between hitting 100mph and then actually braking...hope that is clear?

[DoubleYouPee1]

As far as i can see you didn't flad-shift at all

[UB6IB8UOME1]

A1 GP 8.40 Bugatti Veyron 9.90 Suzuki GSX-R1000 10.70 Ariel Atom S'Charged 11.00 Ariel Atom 450 11.05 Atom Private Owned 11.05 Caterham CSR260 11.95 Brooke Double R 12.50 Porsche 911 Turbo 12.50 Ford Focus WRC 13.57 Lambo Gallardo 13.65 Ascari KZ1 13.80 Corvette Z06 13.80 Alpina B6 14.80 BMW M6 14.95 TVR Tuscan 2 15.00 BMW M5 15.20 Audi RS4 15.80 Aston V8 Vantage 15.81 BMW Z4M Roadster 15.95 Porsche Cayman S 16.46 Lotus Exige S 16.60 Nissan 350Z 18.80 Vauxhall Astra Sprint 18.85

[TheMainMan318]

id like to see this with the v8 atom

[GiR2007]

holy crap. That is FAST! It goes from 0-100-0 faster than my 170HP golf gets to 100!

[EVERLIVERPOOL]

the old r500 could do it in 10.73seconds

[EvilCrewMember]

500hp in 500kg car .. pure evil. i want it.

[baujahr90er]

this vid shows how difficult it is to drive a atom :)

[vithaj92]

That is extreme!

[ASSHOLELA]

caparo t1 will whop this and ultima 0-100-0.

0-100mph < 5s and 3gs of braking force.

Possibly <8s 0-100-0

[Porschographer]

@ASSHOLELA yes but the Caparo T1 costs nearly 10 times more than the Atom.

[madrx2]

@ASSHOLELA LOL, Dreaming. The ultima gtr will smash it

[DSievers04]

@madrx2 two completely different classes of car.  and from what I see not really.

[DrrZippy]

He starts off in 2nd gear, not 1st.... Watch again.

[EVERLIVERPOOL]

@DrrZippy u stupid kid i bet ur 7year olld as atom have no traction at gear 1...

[EVERLIVERPOOL]

@DrrZippy u stupid kid i bet ur 7year old as atom have no traction at gear 1...

[DrrZippy]

@EVERLIVERPOOL First of all... For a 45 year old you should have the brains to just check my profile and see that I'm not 7.

Second... I know the Atom has no traction in 1st... Why the hell do you think I said he started off in 2nd gear for?

Try acting your age and not your shoes size (5 year old) next time old man.

[superandy456]

the atom 500 should thrash that old time as it has launch control and abs

[twshuman]

too much wheelspin on first gear

[juggaloexmortum]

first is too short so by the time you hook up and out of the clutch you have to shift, being in 2nd you have less traction issues and the right amount of gearing

[sirlonghair]

ultima GTR 9.2 seconds

[megahurtz30]

holy shit!! 11 seconds !!!!

[daedruoY]

How "bout" you suck a dick you glue "hed"

[daedruoY]

you little cunt I bet you love Maseratis even though you will never have one..ever....in a million years. Cunt.

[cartmanshome]

would be some awesome fun.

[d0deee]

I didnt see any car run !! is that thing considered as car ?

[maxamilion91]

yes its completely road legal.

[khairul3190]

well its got 2 front and 2 rear wheels.

[Smelly196]

so he starts in 2nd?

[fastmatt30]

looks like it.

[screamosux]

Yeah, except this "bike" will annihilate other bikes on the track. All bikes are good for is acceleration and top speed. They'll never handle as good as an Atom or come out of a corner as fast as one, and Top Gear proved this.

[kellah234]

wot a fat tosser

[kriskinealy]

most girls dont notice nice bikes but love nice cars.

[Neilstr1990]

To bad you when you ride around in your rented BMW you can't get any girls to look at, but when us bikers take out are Buells, Yamahas, Suzukis... We get all the girls to look

[ilikepi68]

They look and think what doushe bags.

[omgScrub]

They look at the BMW running you dumbasses over, and run for their lives while I laugh in self-satisfaction.

[daedruoY]

fuck bikes! cant get a girl on the back with out making her poo herself and do you want to put your tongue in a shitty pussy/crack i think not (unless that floats your boat) ill stick to my 335i and my air conditioning and leather seats sat nav etc ; )

[AgentFour]

I'd prefer an old Challenger. They actually have balls.

[triton401]

oh god how dull...lol

[FunTimeFunkyBhudda]

what a waste of money. there are people starving. take a look in the mirror mate.

[rickburnout666]

them people wouldn`t be starvin if they kept their cocks in their pants and stopped having millions of kids !!! great speed for a car but i still like my bike

[FunTimeFunkyBhudda]

You mama should keep her cock in her pants and stop putting other ones in her mouth. She bred a selfish little twat like you. Go and play on your bike. I hope you have crash..... you twat.

[JeefCakes]

Oh piss off you god damn hippy. You really think the entire solution to starvation in the 3rd world sits on the manufacture of a fucking car?!

If you're that fucking bothered cancel your subscription to the internet and send it to a charity along with everything else you enjoy doing.

[FunTimeFunkyBhudda]

hey jeefcakes what sort of name is that. My internet is free, bit like your mama, you dick wap.

[JeefCakes]

JeefCakes is a fucking Youtube username kind of name you chode, and is that the best response you can conjour up? Or have you now realised that what you've said was utterly retarded and instead thought it best to resort to internet anonymity gangster talk to save face?

God suck on some Echinacea you god damn hippy.

[FunTimeFunkyBhudda]

oh gee jeefcakes your comments really hurt. As you may not have gathered I am on the internet, so my name is a user name you tit. I am not a hippy, I will kick your fucking head in you little arse wipe. I also work heavily on computers and will get your IP so carry on you little blurt.

[FunTimeFunkyBhudda]

And one more thing Jeefcakes, at least I dont get hard, watching men driving fucking go Karts you fucking waste of space.

[JeefCakes]

I don't get hard off watching Karts, and I wont even use this oportunity to mention your mum, because that would be to stoop to your level.

I get hard off telling hippys that haven't got a fucking CLUE how to solve anything getting educated.

There's no shortage of burks like you either so you're blocked. Hope you enjoyed talking to a sane person!

[Baggins412]

Bikes, are great on roads that have NO other vehicles,lamp posts,bus stops,walls,kerbs,fences,mail boxes,oil spills pedestrians and rain or snow,other than that they are the bollox..lol

[joemomma400]

I agree! If you're in a car, you don't have to worry about smashing into "other vehicles, lamp posts, bus stops, walls, mail boxes and pedestrians", and who EVER heared of a car crashing in snow!? No-one, that's who!

Although, I must add, as bikes are far lighter, they do stop better in rain. And as for pedestrians, if you were crossing the street, what would you rather have coming towards you; a bike, or a 4x4?

[christ7272]

cars stop alot better than bikes in the rain.

[piperand]

yes u do. thats how acidents happen beleive it or not

[justovertakenyou]

its funny to see all the nobs writing like they know everything get a life you sad fucks not one of you knows half as much this bloke your just a bunch of sad little wanabee's keep dreamin kiddies

[ignatzRat]

@justovertakenyou As well, MOST of these guys only wish they could drive any of the cars they are talking about, Forget about them EVER owning one

[MadBiker77]

humm 11 sec's on a car that weighs less than a dish cloth... think he needs more practise.. Ultima GTR sets new 0-100-0mph record 7.2 sec's. and that has a V8 in it.. more weight...

[Factnotfictionpeople]

And the purpose of all this instruction(?) is?

[antharding]

It cracks me up how every video has a heated debate of comments underneath it. Your all gimps. The guy in the video is ok, clarkson however is a knob!

[aark12]

What a gayer...

[deltree]

Q: The "perfect run" eh? How come the perfect fucking run is a whole half second off the ariel atom 300s 0-100-0mph time of 10.5?

A: They put some lard-arse in the drivers seat.

[skin186]

OH YEAH BIKES RULE!!!!

[skin186]

OH MY LORD!!!!!! who are you people that guys a d**K and autocar is for a more hard core audience! pull the other one!!! he had to explain what abs is! by the way anyone know how fast a suzuki GSX-R1000 does 0-100-0mph????? i think u'll find its around 9.7!

[benwatts]

know how wet you get when it rains? know how far you fly when a car hits you? know how stupid you look in those leathers? yeah bikes rule!

[skin186]

yes bikes do rule! when a car hits me not the other way round open ur f**kin eyes on the road!!! et who gives a f**k about wetness when for 3 grand you get Ferrari killing performance! pull the other one you haven't lived till you've done 0-100 in less than 6 seconds!

[benwatts]

been there, done that, got my bike license, nearly been killed.

[jonnyturner99]

0-100 in 6 seconds? get a bike that aint for girls before you start flappin bout how good it is mate

[skin186]

weeeelllll what can i say us young guns must know the reality of bikes i.e how fast bikes are a moto gp (800cc) bike only just does 0-100 in 4 secs with aprox 220 bhp where as a standard road bike (750cc) can only manage a measley 5.4-6.2 0-100 time.

[C02000]

Yes a bit ho hum in his presenting & I thought going down the gears would have slowed it down more....V Quick Motor though :)

[nickclarkuk]

What's with the top gear "wannabe" comments? Autocar is aimed at a harder core audience of enthusiasts - with no cheap gimmicks. I love the new top gear, it's brilliant! - but if you actually want to know anything real about a car, it's hopeless. That's why journalists like Sutters (above) won't be out of a job any time soon. Keep up the good work!

[pinkgirl2427]

What a complete waste of my 2 minutes!What a wanker!CLARKSON RULES!Now get off my screen....

[flemwad]

He was just practicing going to the pie shop

[rutz5891]

Of course you do mate. Thats why you being payed to do these shows and give advice!!!!

[DarkY132]

but he locked the brakes.......

[andyrooo636]

What a nobber, so glad he told me how to change gear in a car..mmmmmmmmm tough one.

[leeson660]

lol legend

[dyneportega]

cool

[peppyann]

This is a Top Gear wannabe. Nothing beats top gear!

[leeson660]

they spend £££'s developing a car that weighs less than a shoe box then put a fat guy in it to do a 0-100-0 test. he's prob got a few pies and a few beers kicking around in the footwell too so def not as quick as it could be!

[elvisjsmith]

haha, was thinking the exact same thing as soon as i heard this guy chatting away, then saw your comment

[modifiedcarforums]

take about 1:45 out of that video and it's quite good....

[cam1895]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...........

[frostyjacks]

0-100 in just over six? i was impressed! shame the re-animated corpse got to do it and not me!

[lukeyd2000]

wow 0_0 that was terrible, boring rubbish.

[grayd81]

Cant believe ive waisted 2:04 of my life watching this dull boring dribble... he could have looked a bit exited

[FoxyFreddie]

A face for radio.... what a dull video. Don't waste your life watching this

[Celtisback]
