I like 'em alot, but seem to be getting mixed opinions on them really...

Better about for the money, quicker cars in the same class, etc but nonetheless, lurvely motors I reckon

PMSL!! Not very useable... Put it this way, the civic has a n/a 2l with 197bhp copared 2 the 2l TURBO in the Astra that gives it 192bhp

agreed i really like them, but way too much money, although Vauxhall GSi brands seem to hold their value so im thinking depreciation wont be too bad on these.

You can get them for about 13k on an 03 plate with about 6000 miles from network q - thats not too bad.

the CTR peak power is at 7800rpm the GSi is at 5500rpmish. the CTR below 6000rpm has around 140hp. if you understood about how engiens produce power then you would not be making such silly comments

would the GSi be that much ahead of the CTR down the 1/4 mile then.....?

due to it producing peak power quicker?
