Build quality's not up to much on the interior But coming from a corsa its brilliant. Feels nowhere near as quick as my old XE corsa, but it is. Suppose its down to it not being noisy and stiff as hell!
Gets quite a lot of torque steer imo too, always wants to pull to the left under acceleration. I love mine though, best car i'ved owned.

How much power was that running Rob? I think if i do a couple more runs i could get a very high 14....Maybe.
I'd miss the torque if iwas to get a CTR, was looking at them before i got this.

modern cars don't feel as fast as old tin cans, even when they are alot faster. I'd have a mk4 but modern cars have no soul so i'll stick to mk2s
