Not particularly fast but not slow. If someone made TB's for it then it would give it the extra kick it needs

I've got one and at first I thought it was really quick, but then my previous car was a 1.2.
Now I've got used to it though it's ok - it's not blistering but it's quick enough.
If you look at the bhp figures and 0-60 times you know what to expect really.
Honestly, if you want to give Clio Sports a good run for their money, look elsewhere, but then again, the Corsa 1.8 is quite a low insurance group (9) for the performance.

They aint too bad, as said they aint lightning and wont keep up with Clios but they have alot less power. Not a bad all round car though for the money.

They ain't much slower if at all than the new Fiesta ST which has 148bhp.
I wouldn't mind owning an SRi as I believe with a few Irmscher goodies they look the mutts.
