Rips off an Astra VXR's rear end why don't you 
250bhp is quite lame, considering even VW and such are now getting 270 odd from their 4 pot 2.0....

too much going on at the front i think. the black painted bit doesn't suit it, unlike it suits the seat bocanegra.

apologies then 225PS
So therefore your arguemetn does not stand up
Peak power is not a measurement of how good an engine is
Deal with it - you make a strong point -expect people to counter it

250 bhp / 187 KW @ 5500 rpm
Torque 340 Nm / 251 ft lbs @ 3000 rpm
BHP/Liter 125 bhp / liter
Not too shy
What other 2.0 T cars pack over 250BHP as standard apart from the S3

Jesus Christ did Renault just copy the Astra VXR but put a sour face on the front of it?
That exhaust is a bit big as well.

Nahh, i've just noticed whenever I ahve an opinion, you have a counter opinion which is the opposite and like to voice yours directly against mine 
Deal with it line has been done. There are leaders, and followers.... 
PS, PS power is not bhp measurement.
