She must not be driving it properly then laddie a 170odd bhp Cavy should be mincemeat! But I love your car btw

gsi's run close to 200bhp. my brothers old v6 sri got beat off a vts albeit in the wet, loads of smaller cars will beat a v6 off the line but on the motorway it will be different.

There is no way a Cavvy V6 will keep with a corsa VXR.Ive experienced a tuned V6 in both an Astra GSI and a Cavalier CDX(both with 3l cams etc) and i would put ALOT of money on the VXR trouncing either cars.It just isnt possible.

P.S most V6s in standard guise dont make 200bhp.A tuned 1 with 3l cams, 3.8bar FPR and free flowing exhaust yes,but bog standard,NO.They do make more than standard power but not 37bhp over standard.
