Same - we saw a possie of Arden Blue VXR's (Astra, Zafiras and Vectras) at the pub yesterday, the colour is getting boring now. Also, red is the only colour that doesn't cost extra (according to Total Vauxhall)

Same with the Astra, Red was free, the other 3 were £300 (I think)

i test drove one yesterday and i was dissapointed the car is all out of proportions and is not that powerful, so i went for the astra vxr instead.

You probably didn't test drive one if you didn't think it was that powerful, infact you probably didn't drive an Astra either because up to 80mph I would say there is nothing between the Corsa & Astra and nobody is going to let you take one beyond 80mph in a test drive to notice a difference anyway. 
 
Therefore I believe you are again a Billy Bullshitter.

well obviously there is if the corsa is almost a second slower to 60mph and with the more torque and bhp the astra is alot quicker
