1.8 = group 7-9 (depending what car it is)
coupe @ 9.
the 1.8 astra is the fastest car (at least to 60) there is compared to its counterparts in the same insurance group. well as far as i know.
gimme another car that will get to 60 in around 9.5 and with 115bhp thats in group 7?

Who said there was a 2.2 Turbo? Only a conversion, would much prefer Throttle Bodies anyway!
8.5, 1.8 16v, 125bhp, as opposed to Toyota getting 190bhp and Honda getting 160bhp from a 1.6.
The 1.8 16v engine is shite.
Best engine in the new Corsa will be the 1.6 Turbo Best engine in the Astra at the mo is the 2.0litre turbo.
