Well sold the 1.6 sport a few weeks ago as was just costing me money to keep on the road and i had lost ll interest in it, being 21 i could finally insure the car i wanted. After searching for a few weeks i found this little gem. 57 plate corsa vxr, red one owner from new, fsh 30,000 Miles. Also had arctic alloys put on a panel filter and decat. its very clean and smiles per hour is epic!

very smooth drive, recaros are so comfy. coming out of a corsa b into one of these is surreal. Power jump was a biggie for me it pulls hard in 4th at 30, 1st and second if you drive enthusiastically get some torque steer but its an easy car to drive sensibly also. Fuels not to bad heavy left foot and you will see 25mpg but on motorways 40-45mpg. has cruise control which helps also. so glad i bought it very happy chappy

I bet you were dying to mention that you had a Focus ST and used to pull away from Corsa VXR's from 60mph+.
