Exactly. That's for 17yr olds in Corsas tbh.

I don't mind habit a laugh. But that being a reason to motivate you to purchase a car for £x thousand pounds is even more embarrassing.

I'd rather have a smile on my fave everytime I drove it even if I can't beat a 3.0d Audi off the lights. But then again, comparing he two is useless anyway. An Adi is infinitely better made and more refined than a Toyota coupe designed for a different purpose all together.

Rather sell my house and buy a Lamborghini.

If it had 50-70bhp more it would be quick enough

A Discovery is quicker 50-90 than a Lamborghini

that is of course, until you reach a set of traffic lights and an audi/bmw rep wagon pulls up next to you. you give it the revs and straight ahead stare (i call this the paul j pose), go tearing off yet lose to some guy wearing oakley sunglasses with loads of black smoke coming out the exhaust.

embarrassing.

actually cringing here

Can't recall ever having a race off the lights, its usually b-road driving i do, where 0-60mph doesn't matter.

The only time i'm doing 0mph is when i'm on my drive

Really got into trackdays in my Corsa, it got written off so after the insurance money was sorted a VX220 fitted the bill perfectly as a capable track car and not complete pain in the arse to live with day to day.

Lovely looking car!

Power isn't everything, it's supposed to be a drivers car.
But it is a bit down on power, weights the same as my Clio, same power and mines 6.3 0-60 iirc.

I get the whole drivers car thing but what's wrong with wanting it to have more power as well as being a decent drivers car

It's a 2.0 N/A is it not? Won't be massive gains to make from a remap.

rumour is they will be doing an uprated turbo or supercharged version from the factory.
