yeah tbh, after weighnig up the options and haveing test drove a VRS.
its basically a car with enough performance to keep me happy, and theres always the option to remap. plus the cheap running costs. My GFs 1.2 corsa c costs £78 tax every 6 months, and does around 300 miles to a tank at a gues.
i think a VRS / FR is £55 tax every 6 months and im assuming a tank of fuel would see around 400 miles.
jsut bored of waiting whilst i save the cash
