Ok my next car is either going to be another high reving petrol or a turbo Derv.

I want to know what is better and what other people like and peoples driving experiences. I like high reving petrols but you cant beat the torque of a TD.

The cars Im looking at are the Corrola T sport. Basically a Civic type R apart from not as much power and torque or a Leon TDI. I use the car on a mixture or A roads and city roads. Seem as a commute from one city to another and work is 10miles away.

Truthly it varies due to going to car meets but if I dont go to any then about 9000. The CTS has the same sort of rev range of the CTR but doesnt handle as well and the CTS isnt as common.

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:28

Well I havent been in both but Im saying that it revs the same. Has a better equipment and has better brakes aparently and is just as quick and is a lower insurance group. The CTR handles better and is probably a lot more fun to drive but it doesnt have the nice comforts that come with the CTS

That is true but they can be boring and its sometimes fun to rev the nuts off a car. This is why I need convincing of what to get out of them two cars really

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:37

All I can say is that its better than a Mk5 Fiesta

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:38

Im not Im going to put it in a shed and have 2 cars seem as I should be able to afford it

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:41

Im going to keep it and strip it out and see how fast I can get it

Aahh, I see... a Yaris for when you want to hear the revs, and a diesel Golf for when you really want to put the power down, eh? <nudge, nudge>

LOL yeah

why - To see if i can beat people on the drag strip who have so called fast cars

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:45

I know people are going to say its a Yaris and whats the point. The point is the suprise element. Most people wouldnt expect it and just think that they are up against some sort of granny hopper doing a pointless drag.

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:46

Its a 1.5 16v

Would you like a change of underwear?

LOL

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:50

tut tut. Im not going to be racing it on the roads, just on the drap strips around lovely England and when I come across some other car like a GTI-6 I might have a better chance

Its not a stupid idea, its something to do. Plus I will see how much quicker it is compared to a standard one.

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:53

133bhp per tone is gonna be pretty nippy

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:56

Ahh but they weighs more and according to what Ive been told it does 0-62 in 7.5 secs and my car standard does it in 8.7 secs. So with the less weight I should be able to hopefully get it around the same sort of time as the GTI

OK no more stupid replys now. I am serious about doing a supercharger though if I get the money for it.

BD10NNF · 17 Dec 2009 at 21:59

Because without me you wouldnt have anyone to have a laugh with and at
