True but i alwaz expected the SRI tage to hold more BHP and slightly quicker 0-60 margins etc. When do you get your new Astra???
I am hopefuly picking up a 2nd hand CTR this Tuesday 90bhp >>>>> 197bhp

Rovers are for men with pipes and slippers. And do you have a den?

Fair enough mate, like I said i'm not a fan of Rovers myself but I do appreciate that some of them can be pretty quick.

I would be that ex, and if you people are calling a 150 mph nice looking car a bad thing just because it says rover then you all need some serious growing up to do, if there was a corsa out there that did it I wouldn't look down my nose and say its for 17 year olds, I'd say fair play, its a proper car, too many of you lot are hung up on image which you obviously don't care about asnyway by driving a flamin corsa.
And if any of you ever actually look at a rover coupe then I'm sure you would not say it is a grandad car, they look nice, its not like its the 200 hatch which is grandadified.
Come to pod, then we talk
