No, not the case at all. If this was Renualt doing a hot Clio we would be all praising it over and over but people always need to find a negative with Vauxhall.
I'm going mad, I really will fight someone today and I hope it's Stephen Williams of Ab Lench, Worcestershire.

20 grand for a Ginger Corsa? I'm a fan of the Corsa d and love the vxr, but that colour is horrible and price is a bit high!

Pumping up the looks on this Opel-badged model are a big rear wing, bulging arches and a lower front spoiler than on the standard VXR.
[Edited on 03-11-2010 by Ojc]
Are the arches and spoiler actually bigger as they look the same as the current one?

I like vauxhall, it's clearly what's happened though, due a facelift right about now.

Ollie they would praise the Clio because it will be better than the competition 
Vxr is good, that looks proper mean can't help but think the only thing they need to do with it is change the rear lights, look bait dated?
Car has excellent StAnCe

badge snob tbh.
take those blinkers off. i enjoy all brands of car and can actually manage to say when another brand produces a good'un, such as the new astra vxr is so much better looking than the focus.

The thing that annoys me about vauxhall is, they always water it down too much, thats why the clios get a better rep.

Are you joking? I had to tell them about the Arctic so we could order one, they won't have a clue about this yet.

Very Nice! I quite like the colour as well to be honest.
Glad to see Vauxhall really going for it over the past 5 years with the VXR Brand!
Not sure about the comments about not tuning the Corsa though... I know piston 4 can get fuel starvation and melt over around 230bhp if the fuelling not adjusted accordingly.
There are loads of corsa VXR's out there with remaps/exhausts etc which are running fine... ?

They are ok, but if it goes wrong you will be fucked as Vauxhall are hot on this issue.
