Wheels are too big, will totally spoil the handling of the car.

But they are standard, I would have thought the 'designers' would some how would sort the handling around these?

Are those Samco silicone hoses? Were they factory fitted?

Not really my kind of cars, but really nice colours, you and your mate are clearly very proud of your cars!

Hope you enjoy them, as long as you don't spank them around the roads with the fog lights on!

Not sure on the Corsa but I do quite like the Astra's.

Is it standard at the moment? I found they became a lot faster in stage 2 form as opposed to Stage 1.

I really like those White Astra VXR's - The one with the chequered graphics on one side... What are they called?

They are Samco's but not factory fitted.

Ah I had an annoying rattle, its just a temp fix to stop two pipes clanging.

Back to dealer I hope? Looks smart though very much like a 206 to my eyes and not to my taste, but congrats and you seem very happy with it.

They are nice cars, just think its a little sad having the same car as your friend. Could he not at least have got a different colour?

Same car? Eh :confused:

Wicked, both very capable / fun cars.

There's not much difference in them at all around the track, nor a straight line

The corsa is just a blast to cain around in, very easy to control and a pleasure to drive.

Having actually driven a Corsa VXR I can confirm its a cracking little thing, not the best hot hatch I have ever driven but no slouch and well put together from what I could tell.

I like the fact that you took so long taking all those pictures that it's dark by the time you finished

The dark pictures where taken in a different car park after a 1hour drive.

Astra looks good, not too sure on the Corsa, it looks small and awkward.

wassap · 2 Mar 2009 at 16:21

Corsa is loads of fun,it was on the track anyway, it seemed nice inside for a little hatch, i think VX have finally got a car to handle well, very well infact.

I can't help but think that Corsa VXR's look very awkward. The proportions are just not "right", especially from the rear/side profile or full on rear profile.

This is exagerrated even more when parked next to an astra.

^ I really like the look of your astra, it's rather sleek. But the corsa just looks wrong...

Virdi · 2 Mar 2009 at 16:46

That white Astra looks nice!
