*Facepalm* You can get an Audi S3 for the price of one of these!! Seriously why why why would you spend that much on a Corsa? lolzzz

[theBHPclub]

@clio210 no you can't? Just looked on Audi's website and they start from £31k new. Unless you are comparing buying new with buying used which is not a fair comparison. It depends what you want from a car. And NO ONE has paid the list price for one of these cars, most people have had £3-4k off the price! Making it actually a very reasonable price for so much performance.

Id love to see you driving an M3 or GTR lol

[theBHPclub]

@Mr330d the astra nurburgring pos and bangs loads!!

[craigwhite11]

unlike other vauxhalls or other cars this one has a different differential so if you go round a roundabout you can keep pushing the throttle and instead of going wide it tucks in. its amazing!!

[Mr330d]

@theBHPclub thank you for replying my brother has a 2007 astra 1.9 cdti 150bhp great car and 140mph top end i love vauxhalls and would love to have a corsa vxr / astra vxr in arden blue must be a really enjoyable car to drive and i love the way they pop but i heard the corsa vxr is 2 groups less than a bmw 330d which isn't great lol
