Saxo all the way

Get a full straight through exaust and a procomp carbon fibre induction kit (best there is by far!)

Also, you can't go wrong with a saxo interior, standard corsa ones are fuckin horrid

Are the dash bits as easy to colour code, with spray paint, as with the corsa dash e.t.c

VTR! having owned both i can definately say the vtr is nicer to drive, and has a better interior. corsa's do have bags more tuning and mod potential though

And like with your saxo, hodaz, i doesn't take much to make it look hard. Lowered and nice alloys like yours and looks great.

If i can afford the bit extra and find a gud one, yes i will be going for a phase 2. I know that the phase 1 is 90bhp, 0-60 in 9ish, is the phase two any quicker?

er........yes i do. all its got is induction kit. my mates got one, we race all the time. straight line, through country, always beat it.
raced countless down the prom and stuff.
might be sounding like a total chav like, but there ya go. sport is 88bhp standard, vtr is 90bhp standard. not that big a difference? also even the newer faster ones, dont cut it.

IMO Saxos are pretty ugly cars no matter what you do to them. Where as a Corsa just needs Irmscher, Steinmetz or GSi bits and they look

got to love those standard wide archs on a saxo, though, to be fair. But I agree with u about Irmscher e.t.c looking better, but it all costs time and effort.

mk1 would be close mk2 he would have you easily

look at it this way a lighter faster car against a heavier slower car,your mate cant drive

nice car that new accord though, very exectutive. Love the chrome bits and dark alloys...... anyway abouts saxos. I agree with you about the speed thing, it just does make sense otherwise. Is his mate a girlie?

I'd get a pug 306 dturbo, group 5 insurance, 150 quid you can have about 105 bhp and still get 50mpg

Vtr's are quicker, full stop!
Older ones you could probably hang on his tail for a bit but it WILL pull on you eventually if he drives it properly.
You shouldnt stand a chance against a newer one, not in a slightly modified 1.4 Corsa.
I say this because i have owned 3 Corsa's, 1.2, 1.4 Sport and now 1.6 Sport, and only now can i beat a Vtr, 2 of my mates have currently got phase 2 Vtr's, one used to have a phase 1, but now has a Vts.
My corsa has full system and airbox/filter mods and can beat a phase 2 Vtr.

in reply to buying a 306d
Gud idea but the only reason im getting rid of my corsa1.5td is cus it sounds like a transit. I wanna get a nice petrol, straight throught the zorst and ind kit it. Get a nice loud sporty sound u can hear for miles instead of sounding like a john deere
