[Tony172]

I was down there in my mates arctic Corsa Vxr just to see what was about!!

L22 OCD = our 172, we go there most sundays for a pizza hut with a couple of mates of ours, they're normally in either a red or yellow escos parked near us and a 3 door sierra cosworth or a red evo.

Wont be around the next couple of sundays as we're off snowboarding instead but if you see us again come over and say hi

PS

I write for Total Vauxhall sometimes and go to all the vauxhall events, so might know your mate if he is into vauxhalls a lot? Ask him if he knows "chip with the mid engined nova"

I always used to see the older chap in his red ecos.

We've been going there for best part of 10 years now for a pizza on the sunday evenings.

All the chavs seemed to have stop going but as we're in the habbit we still do.


That red ecos is a cool car, 550bhp or so, I quite often take people out in it to show them what it goes like for the owner as he is too sensible to be pissing around "street racing" so this way it just risks my license instead, lol

It's the first vauxhall he has owned and only got it 2 weeks ago had a fiesta ST before but after I rinsed him in my 172 he wanted something a bit quicker!! I've not given him a run in the Vxr yet but give it time!!

Do it before he gets it remapped, lol

Will be about 220-230bhp and 280-300 NM then.

 

[Tony172]

It's plenty quick enough as it is I love the way it pops and bangs on gear change as its got a Remus system on it as standard

 

[Chip-mk1]

Yeah they are quite cool little cars.

Heavier than you would think though which blunts the performance a bit, within a 100kg of a sierra cosworth in fact IIRC, lol


I suspect the new 1.6 turbo renaultsport clio will be very similar to drive to the corsa vxr.

You'll be fine up against it...like said, until a map.
