Do some testing of your own mate, i think ull find they arent even comparable 
cant believe you made this statement, the astra gsi is better in every respect, far more tunable not down on torque, i found out how pathetic ctr's were watching them beaten up the strip by steves gti
the clio cup is also another example of a better car, and so is a leon cupra r the list goes on
Mate shut the fuck up, you know jack shit   If they r so shit why do they outsell every other like for like car and consistently win awards An i think yuoll find a CTR to be very tuneable, ask about an ull find plenty who have 250bhp for very little money, an a drag strip is not the be all an end of all a cars qualities
BTW have you ever driven any of the aforementioned cars?

No they really dont, they take them for waht they r  AN the reason why u get some cocks is because young people can afford them an they let the power go the their heads As for steves 106... it was heavily tuned and yeah, with low down torque it beat a CTR... when I raced my CTR an RX7 got beat by a 106 as well... hardly tells a proper story

yes all of them, they outsell because chavs buy them because they think theyre in the fast and furious, but then your an ex ctr owner so its to be expected.
You have the exact attitude of ctr owners

Chavs dont buy CTR's
Its mainly "young suits"
Hence why I mentioned office/bank car parks
I've never really seen a chav in a CTR

you even talk like one, im not even going to bother continuing this argument. The ctr hasnt won any award i have seen, and if it did it wasnt being compared with the right cars, prolly with a corsa sri or summit crap, show me an award where its been up against a leon cupra r, astra gsi where its come out top?

there are two different tpes of chav, those that are plain gypsies and cant afford shite, obviously its not them, then there are those chavs that have rich parents, or make a bit of cash themselves, and obvioulsy have no clue about cars and go and buy the cheapest thing that bears relation to the fast and furious, take our robbo for example

Umm you dont ever read car mags then., fair enough Usually compared to an LCR, MCS, Astra GSI (altho that rarely gets in the running) and a few others that escape me right now
As for speaking like a chav, do i
Matt me neither mate but yes u do get priclks, like i said its power for little money hence it attracts young people who drive like pricks 
BTW look on whatcar or top gears websites at previous awards an the ctr wins them all, won what car hot hatch of the year for 3/4 years running i think ull find

think ull find i have my own money, hecne y i had a ctr, hence y i own a brand new house and hence y i am imminently ordering a £24000 car (options before u start whining) using MY money
as for my typing, i type all day at work an hence cannot be bothered to type properly here also chavs dont say "hence" so

And then there are retarded people like yourself who talk out of their arse because that is where their head happens to be 
A chav is a burberry clad unemplyed dobber who has relations with the local bunny boiler & has various crap tattoo's.
How on earth is that even remotely comparable to someone who has a good job & comes from a family with a sound financial status?

yes obviously it would be pathetic of me to say EVERY CTR driver is a dick, because of course they are not. The vast majority are though

again we are going back to the car, like i said as far as plenty of people are concered it isnt a shite car, in my personal experience i think they are pretty crap having driven one, raced plenty, and readin various things about them.
They are very reliable which is one of there good points.
