English translation:

Why don't you get a life??

What language am I writing in then? Chinese, French, what?




Now spot the differences?
A life? You asked about 2.0 16v Corsas, and i've replied with details. This makes me childish because your complaining that I can't read? But I can read English. Your text is not English. You have a keyboard. Use it.

Im not being nasty, but don't spit your dummy out when someones offering advice that you might not want to hear.

Bugattis, Koenigseggs and Lambourghinis are all easy pickings in a 2.0 Corsa.

106 gtis and saxo vts are exactly the same engine. 120bhp 1.6 16v engines. so if beltons 1800 pulls just past a gti and abuses vts maybe the saxos have had harder lifes? or are vtrs with s badges

Mates Xe couldn't pass my 106 Gti. Could sit beside me but couldn't pass when he pulled out and the air slowed him down.

My Corsa XE was ahead of my mates EP3 from 0 to 30 then its neck and neck till about 80 and he then starts getting ahead.

In my Nova with F16 it was a different story, it killed his Civic and DC2 and I had a play with a brand new Focus ST and whooped that too.

Never came across any EP3's but did pull several car lengths on a mates old DC2.That was even after he had the jump on me and still couldnt pass.And that was in an XE Corsa.

Every XE Corsa varies from engine to engine.They arent all going to be running the same amount of power in standard form.

A 106 gti with similar breathing mods will be on par with an XE, a 16v XSI however would be quicker

Xe Corsas/Novas are a quick little car but don't expect them to be the fastest things out there as they are far from it.
