Yeah the 888 is very impresive looking. My mates mate has one. If it was a petrol id definitly prefer it.

888 for me. Think it looks better than the VXR and much better mix of performance and economy.

if the 888 had the astra engine it would be more appealing to so-called petrol heads. But like said above its a comprimise beteween economy and perfromance with looks. I cant choose though a VXR would have me weak at the knees if i had to choose. Pity they didnt put the Vectra VXR engine in the Astra for a special edition.

Like id have prefered a 1.8T golf or something different S3 perhaps but im doing 600 miles a week & the fuel cost would cripple me!!

Derv if your doing the miles to justify it else stick with petrol.

Only thing about the 888. Has to be registered as a modified car. I'd have thought Thurlby affiliated with an insurance company, so that it isn't classed as modified.
