...I'll be just leaving the TripleEight headquarters in Greatworth (nr Banbury) Oxfordshire, after previewing the Corsa VXR

Can't wait - it is first shown at the Geneva Motor Show tomorrow, so we'll be the first people in the UK to see one in the flesh.

I've emailed them already, no opportunity to drive the car BUT will be able to book a test drive direct, with a dealer. Doubt I'll be able to, only being 19.

Personally, can't wait till tomorrow night. First time I've been to something like this, other than the British International Motor Show. Also get a tour of the TripleEight place and some kind of talk by the TripleEight team.

Of course, I will be taking a digi cam any pic requests of interesting posses I should do with the car?

Is it just picture requests or is a verse of 'Killing Me Softly' out of question?

He might be telling the truth but i reckon it'll be an sxi plus or something.

Prob was a nice new corsa, just kitted up to look like the VXR.

Why is it unreasonable for him to see one in Luton, the day before its grand unveiling at a pre-arranged event?

Vauxhall will have about 10 in Luton at the moment, going to these showings all over the country by tomorrow.......

Not saying it nasty, Meant it in a jokingly way.

I just reckon its unlikely, Athough your right, it could have been.

2 people have posted on here before i believe saying they had seen a corsa VXR around luton, so why not? there is no reason for him to lie, he gains nothing from it i think he's telling the truth. it was probably people at the headquarters taking one for a test drive. most likely a VIP or someone high up in the company.

i reckon the first person lied, so the second person though 'i'll say i saw it too' then its like Domino's falling.

And its all just so they can say "I saw it before you"
