New Tigra, 2 seater cc.
http://www.webwombat.com.au/motoring/news_reports/tigra_twin.htm
Saw it at the Motor Show couple months back and thought it looked alright. Depending on what mods I'll be able to do to it I'm debating whether or not to buy one.
Any thoughts? Do you think there'll be plenty of Mods available for it or am I best looking at other convertibles?

Wait for the turbo!! I was waiting for the Corsa C GSI that was due out last year! In the end I opted for the Corsa C SRi 1.8. Incidentally my SRi is up for sale in the Classifieds with pics.
So if I did decide to go for the Tigra I think I'd get the 1.8 rather than wait for the eventual release of the 1.6 Turbo.

I know, that's what I was worried about... it being feminine. I have to be honest though in certain colours available it does look it. But in the right colour if I lower it and put some 17"s on it it'll be smart.

Theres a review of it in auto express, and they seem to be singing it's praises .
Know they mentioned its got the Corsas underpinnings, and its got a corsa dash. Front end looks mint, so i just hope it'll fit on the Corsa C, like the old tigra front end fitted onto the B's .

Was at the dealership today asking about the Tigra. They said that at some point end July/August they're getting a Tigra in the showroom but they're only keeping it a couple of days. Apparantly Vauxhall are only making a fixed number to tour around the country dealerships for the time being.
