well the 306 stats compare very closely to a standard XE
either way the difference is not going to be considerable

handles better, is just as fast, more reliable, and better looking
The last is of course my opinion but the others are simple facts
Who says it's just as fast, who says it's more reliable
It's also french and old and build like a papier mache model.
The interior's are not good.

cceleration is nice but handling is what i prefer and i am led to believe the 306 has better handle-ing capabilities

I agree with Hammers comments on here that 'alot' of ppl are anti-corsa, not good for a corsa site.
Personally I would choose the XE corsa, prefer the looks..

How can you have "stats" for a 2.0 corsa? its not factory...so you'd have to go on what people have achieved. 6.5 sec 0-60 for me.
And ofcourse if you search for xe problems theres going to be loads, because your totalling all the problems of everyones xe corsa's...

a xe corsa has a fair bit of an edge over a gti6 in a straight line

like your thinking but if i buy the 306 i will be leaving the corsa scene and probably not return i have had my fun and owned every model wish i had bought a let rather than xe wouldn't mind a tidy calibra let just like rockin horse poop to find
