Just To Let You All Know....

I Have Orderd My Vxr... Hell Yeah

At A Cost Of £23,000.....

888 Racing Sorted Me Out Big Time.

Im Not Sure On Full Spec But I Told 888 Racing To Do Everything To It Possible, This Is The Rough Spec

Vxr Corsa D
18" Wheels
Full Leather
Climate Controll (i Think)
Re-map
Remus Exhaust
Ap Racing Breaks
Bilstine Racing Coilovers 30mm lower than standard vxr
1st In Stock Intercooler
+ More I Cant Remember Because Of The Excitement

Told Its Going To Be Around The 260bhp Mark Poss More

15 Weeks Is The Eta

Ouch, think of what else he could have got for that money.

Unfortunately 'Common Sence' cannot be purchased, not even for £23,000

You just cannot buy taste

What an utter bell peice that guy is!

Firstly..

Climate Controll (i Think)

He's just spent £23,000 on something he isn't aware of the specification of?

Secondly..

I don't care how fast it is or how it looks its still fundamentally the same car as the thing parked on my drive right now and £23k for anything like that is ridiculous.

Does this version of the Corsa have some sort of special engine or is my guess that his claim of 260bhp+ is idiotic, correct?

[TW]Fox · 8 Jul 2008 at 00:11

Wow, you know you've made a stupid mistake when everyone on the Corsa owners forum has a go at you.

And..

lets hope i progress to be a charded engineer

Oh dear.

Scuzi · 8 Jul 2008 at 00:12

Is that an Engineer trained in Chard?

paradigm · 8 Jul 2008 at 00:13

I think he meant to say "retarded engineer"?

James_N · 8 Jul 2008 at 00:13

lol he mentions he was worried about MPG on other cars but then spent £23k on a corsa

Dangerous Dave · 8 Jul 2008 at 00:13

Thats crazy money buy a year old one for half that at least even then that still a lot of cash. At first I thought it was a diesel version however its a 1.6 turbo petrol basically the same enigne thats in the Mini Cooper S 220-240bhp ish is suppose to be possible from it on the standard turbo which is pretty good going I suppose.

[TW]Fox · 8 Jul 2008 at 00:14

Wow reading his posts, every one of them, just makes me think he's the most daft person I've seen on the internet all month.

'i was gonna buy an an audi a4 for 3k it was 40k new lol'

Great.

Johnnytoxic · 8 Jul 2008 at 00:29

What a clown. Ah well we need these idiots to buy them in the first place so we can buy them a year later lol.

I wanted a car with good MPG, yeh because thats the sensible thought.

Is this a joke?

chaparral · 8 Jul 2008 at 02:30

Imagine the bloke face at his insurance company when he says he wants to insure his vauxhall Corsa for £23,000

merlin · 8 Jul 2008 at 08:59

incurence ppl are dumb

kvfb97 · 8 Jul 2008 at 09:01

I really like the Corsa VXR tbh, but £23k is slightly over-the-top...

Janesy B · 8 Jul 2008 at 09:04

Jesus what a fool, he's 19, the "incurence" company wont touch him with a barge pole.

spaz · 8 Jul 2008 at 09:08

What a chump

GravyMonster · 8 Jul 2008 at 09:09

Fair play to the guy for working hard to earn the money, but jesus...

the pleb on that forum said:
just gutted about i cant have a tow bar fitted on it

*Face/Palm*

Had to stop reading that thread after the word 'Lush' was used to describe the car.

Oh dear.
