Yes - the Vectra was terrible  Actually went in a straight line. These cars, because of the turbo basically has too much power or can't put it down correctly. The guy at Honda at the Motor Show was saying that Honda are concentrating on how the CTR puts power down, not the power itself, so being naturally aspirated it should be good.
Anyway, enough of Vtech, I think the Corsa VXR will do just fine on UK roads.
What a load of cock, the Vectra VXR handles superb just because some idiot on Top Gear decides he doesn't like a powerful FWD car they decided to give it a negative review, Top Gear are biased anyway I don't watch that crap.
aye calm down calm down. Whoever was driving was going pretty fast, turned the steering wheel and it kept going in a straight line, barely turned  Give me a Mazda 6 MPS anyday!

But they were doing that on purpose, anyone can make a car oversteer/ understeer in the correct circumstances, obviously who ever was driving it isn't that good a driver.

Barely turned on a airfield, which is a big place. Thats not something you could replicate on the road.

Watched the video, does look good not quite the same road presence as the Astra VXR but it certainly is the best Corsa to date.
