Don't start, he did'nt say they were. I think we all know Vauxhall are'nt the best cars in the world. Please don't let this turn into another corsa vs 106 vs steve vs the world thread.

Better than ford imo, just seems to be more of a cult following with fords, in all honesty the build quality of most older fords is shocking imo, having owned 4 fords and 2 vauxhalls i feel i am in a good position to comment, and french cars, dont get me started(also owned a few of these).
The motoring press just seem to have a hatred for all things vauxhall .
The corsa vxr looks awesome imo, as does the astra vxr not many other hot hatches i would want atm tbh....

they make it out to be quite tame? sounds like a good motor though. Can't wait to see it in the flesh, will let you know what i think once i've driven one.

Any need to bring it back up though? Lets go off what Steve said rather than a review of someone who has actually driven one or at least Dean who has sat in one. You really are a grade A tit.

Yup - I have said in numerous threads how small I am so the seats didn't support me too well

Wait and see what EVO quote. Manufacturers 0-60's aren't always accurate.

For a fwd hatch Id say mid 6's is pretty reasonable!!
I quite like it, its better than anything previously on offer!!

Review was a bit weird, it was pretty hyped up until the last paragraph where it says 197 is still better althought to me it sounded like for everything else it came out on top. Im left feeling confused. It all sounds very good though.

It's more high 6's TBF. Yes, I like them. If they did them in white, i'd get one in a few years instead of a CTR.
