An Astra that'll do a million miles?

That i'd like to see :)

So you werent tempted with anything a little more exotic for £15k then?
 
crikey. thats a fair old output for a 1.6

i know a couple people that work at Ford's Dunton development place, a couple years ago they were telling me there were issues relating to the fiesta ST 1.6 turbot in the region of 180-190 ish
 
If you're happy with it that's what counts! Any pics? What does the 100k miles warranty cover?

Didn't realise you could get so much power out of a 1.6!
 
I want to slate it because its a Vauxhall but I cant, sounds quite good for someone looking for a new car with a nippy petrol engine. Enjoy, post pics when it arrives hopefully it doesnt have a silly OEM Vauxhall body kit
 
crikey. thats a fair old output for a 1.6

I had a 1985 and latterly a 1990 Escort 1.6 RS Turbos both running (relatively reliably) with a 175BHP "Re-map", I'd have thought a more modern design would handle it with ease?

Happy days. :)
 
Seems expensive to me but if you're going to keep it for a while with a lifetime 100000mile warranty, can't complain too much, should get on some track days to get that warranty into action :P
 
A 1613kg Astra, is that right?

180bhp yet 0-60 in 8.8 seconds, must make 180bhp for about 0.0112% of the rev range?

Wow thats heavy and the 0-60 is a little off what I would have guessed it would have been. Is it the same engine thats in the Corsa VXR?

Im sure Hondas B16 engine are at around 180bhp ( for the EK9 ). N/A Too


/Honda fan out :o

185BHP and so what, its got nothing to do with this car
