Comparable to a brick I would imagine

Sorry I can't be any more constructive than that

Cd of a brick is 2.1 (sad eh) LOL and thats true

A MK2 droop is about 0.39 slightly worse than a MK1

would you believe a VW Beetle of the same era was .485 ouch nearly a brick but smoother 8-)

Well at least the MKII is more efficient than an Allegro !!

An Allegro is supposed to be more aerodynamic in reverse !!
