its ok.. i drove it when it first came out, and it felt nice and smooth bit 2 old manish for me! although it was quick although a little breathles up top.... the brakes are pucker and the handling is great but id go for the more raw astra vxr for a new car...

just book ur funeral if u do choose the astra

I tested it at Milbrook proving ground and was well impressed.  Hold of buying one though as the new R32 wont be a lot more expensive.

totally agree with boggle on the r32... although performance wise there is nout really between them and the tuning potential for the turbo gti is massive..
