I loved these when they first came out to the point where i nearly got one(until i realised i couldnt afford) but then the love died off until i saw an arden bule one on the diamond cut 18's go past yesterday, it was Much nicer than the Astra VXR's, just wish they were quicker out the box.

Fingers crossed you`ve bought a good 1, I bought 1 new had nothing but problems clutch and flywheel broke,air con pipes cracked,air con pump/pulley shatterd to bits. Dont wish to put a downer on you as they are great fun and superb handling at stock.

A guy in my area has a standard Arctic version and gives it death everywhere, the exhaust actually pops and bangs on hard acceleration not just on overrun

Why are they so poor on fuel, does the standard map run rich to prevent det as some kind of safety precaution?
Are they better once remapped?

Why do you think this is?
Everyone else manages to make reasonably efficient small block turbo engines.

they're not that bad on fuel, just when your giving it death like every other car.
It averages 34mpg driving tidy.

Compared to the Cooper 'S''s new turbo motor it dosn't sound good.
EVO mag raved about the MPG.
