106 GTi would hammer a corsa C sri. they can easily reach 130-140bhp and weight nothing

i've never been in or driven or raced a 1.8 sri, my mates 1.4 was nippy, unless the 1.8 was a big improvement then it would get reaped, 1.8 sri is a nice motor though.

No, no you wouldn't, it's a 1.8 turbo, there is no contest. if "Steve" sees that then bring on the 7 page debate!!!!!!!

VTS is quickest out of all 3 on paper. 106 GTi is similar but looks nicer than the corsa/VTS

the new 9n face lift GTI is a 150bhp 1.8t
they are far better to drive than a corsa c sri, and IMO feel alot quicker

When VW realised the 1.6 16v wasn't enough in the polo to honour the gti badge!!!!!
