the older shape ones... the standard coupe turbo is 197bhp right? so are the 888s engines tuned or is it just the looks that are different?

I quite like them. Hate the Halfords-Ripseed-esque spoiler though.

I would imagine standard ones are hard to come by.

they are the by far the best coupe to be sold in the uk, the arches and bumper's make it look how it should

the seat's suffer from bolster wear on most, but is an easy repair.

the z-let engine is great and pull's the astra along well, it will keep with type-R's and piss on cupra's and golf gti's

They seem to get huge amount's of torque with a map, add an intercooler and EDS map and they produce about 250 bhp and 300 blb of torque

Expect the clutch to need doin, go for a c20let one as they are better, well they say they are over on Astra sport

Same as the SRi Turbo engine, not the GSi Turbo.

wrong, they are the same as the gsi, all coupe's are 200

only the sri T was 190, but having 3 mate's with sri T's there is no difference between them and the gsi/coupe
