It does look cool like, but how much!
Bearing in mind that Nova GSi's, Corsa GSi's (top of the range in he day) were around £11k. Its a lot of money. You could buy a 2yr old Impreza STi for that much, a million times more car for the money.

No, it doesn't compare.
The Corsa GSi is the same as the 1.8SRi C, and the 1.8SRi D, if/when they sell one.
The VXR is a totally different animal.

vxr is just a name, a clever name to appeal to people that are easily impressed

I like it 
Love the interior  I think the exterior is nice except for the back, but i think it may grow on me 
Bet it will be slated by the media though 
Drives supercharged Tec with torque

thats one reason why i was never fussed by the focus st's, new golf gti's, astra vxr's etc, cos my £6k ibiza was quicker than all of them. ( i know it was remapped and this could of been done to all of em, but still)

:yawn:
This isn't about VAG/PSA cars, it's about the Corsa VXR. Stop with your pointless drivel.
No-one cares if your chipped whatever was quicker. This is a fast standard car, a competitive price, perfect for the brand.
