(*im not taking about cars under 1300cc) but finally when you compare the pros and cons of a low capacity engin with a mid capacity enging (1500) you will see a massive difference...specially in 1300cc engines will not give you enough acceleration...(normally, when you realise this you are too late ) and the engine tends to worn out very fast... but 1500cc is a decent choice (you are not a racer or not a snail) but if you need to be aggressive .... you should go for highr capacities with turbo or supercharged engines... <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/wink.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" data-shortname=";)" /> <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/yes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":yes:" title="Yes    :yes:" data-shortname=":yes:" /></blockquote>
