You want gutless?... try driving a 1.1L punto(all of 54bhp) filled to the windows, towing an (un-braked) trailer weighing at least 400kg+the 250kg trailer itself. Thats gutless...

... You want truly gutless? I drove an 800cc Smart ForTwo Diesel with the turbo blown on a 400 series highway (the big highways around here, 4-8 lane depending on where you are).
Worse acceleration then a loaded transport truck. I basically just matted it at all times. It slowed to 30 MPH up hills. Stock is 40 HP. I'd estimate without the turbo i was driving with somewhere around 15 HP. Took a lot of intestinal fortitude to drive it to the dealer to get it fixed!
