Which do you have?

I know the standard Corsa ariel is a bit crap but I can't help but think that the alloy ones look a bit strange Plus they weren't that great in terms of quality fom what I've seen

Anyone got any other examples?

I've had

Standard
Aluminium
Standard Again
None (all on sport)

None (Nova)

Standard (corsa sri)

Standard (corsa c)

standard is the best for actually getting a signal, metal ones tend to go missing

ive got an alloy stubby, a mate gave me it, then when he went to take the old one off its snapped off so had to drill it out and re-tap it, so i've no choice if i want to change back unless i go to the scrapyard. I'll wait to see if mine gets nicked first.

I've got a standard - reception is fine on local radios (also have a Kenwood headunit) but it is always searching for Radio1 - gets annoying as it's normally when they are talking or something good is on.

I want a really long one for my car but Vauxhalls seem to have a smaller screw than other makers, the longest i can find is the gay twizzly standard. Any idea what car i could take one off of thats about twice the length ? (Im going to the remote control car look)
