2500 VXR`s? hmmm so they are going to hold their value then. There goes the chance of getting a 3 year old one for 9k in the future then.

If the Corsa VXR handles better than a Mini Cooper S, for which I have driven and have to say its the BEST handling car I have ever driven, then Vauxhall have produced something of a miracle.

it confuses me why they are complaining about the fact the VXR will spin an inside wheel and the throttle response is snappy.

its a hot hatch FFS. this is the exact reason I never buy these types of magazines for their reviews.

Exactly, if it were the opposite way round they'd say it was 'bland' or 'tame'.

the fact that the gash mini (see what i did there) beat the VXR on styling is somewhat homosexual
