yeah, cos they'll make it slower than the mk4 gsi...aye right.

6.1 is easily achiveable seen as the mk4 does the 60 dash in 7seconds dead. and its 197bhp.

oh and the mk4 beats ctr's...so this will munch them.
PMSL an astra gsi is slowwer than a CTR unless the CTR driver cannot drive


I really don't think there would be much in it Robbo -- not enough to PMSL anyway... Most CTR drivers cannot drive the thing either -- too scared to drive it high up the revs... Mate of mine who owns one drives it like a granny...

...anyway if it were uphill the gsi might have an advantage

Paniz - Interior is meant to be exactly the smae appart from they dont think the red leather will make production (it may be an option though) Its most likely going to be the same as the gear knob, black with red stiching. The rest of the interior will be exactly like it is.

Looks good, Think im still liking the new golf though. CTR looking less desirable now IMHO. Market is getting seriously flooded with hot hatches though.
