They are quick when tuned, by quick i mean fast at breaking down of course. When they work they are nippy though. Had one leave me behind before!

He has about 260bhp/ton vs my 195bhp/ton (based on ive heard he is running about 350bhp) the noise of his excess turbo gases nearly broke my windows lol

So do VW's.

I drove an Astra recently and it was flipping awesome. Very precise drive, very nimble, precise steering, nice firm responsive suspension.

Definitely wasnt an Astra VXR then as i have never heard anyone say they are nimble, or have precise steering! I found it awful when i drove one, felt like the suspension set up was made on a friday afternoon in a rush.

Don't know about the astra, but a bloke at work has the corsa vxr and that thing is epic, only trouble he said is you absolutely can't put your foot down on a wet road or its exit stage left.
