0-100 Time 850 2.5 20v, Any Ideas?
Not sure if my paltry 170bhp belongs in such high powered company, but does anyone know the 0-100mph time for a standard 850 2.5 20V
Cheers!

Well the 0-130 of a 245BHP 850R auto is 49 seconds. Thats the only comparison I can give. But the 0-60 is around 10 seconds so I would guess a 0-100 of around 16/17 seconds.
Get to an airfield and time it for us I had a 2.5 20V for three years and I have to say, , they're not as slow as most think.

I'd say 20+ given the 0-60
cars slow down quite a lot once they get past 80 normally. Jacqs 2.5 V6 Vectra used to manage it in about 19 seconds but that was just to 100 on the clock, so probably more accurately 22/23 allowing for over read, and it's 0-60 was under 8 seconds. Ross

Yer my m8's mondeo v6 is about 19 ish , same power and torque but about 100 kilos less weight than my tank, I agree 20+ is a good estimate, will have to try next time im on the "test track", lol
