Out of the 2 i'd get the Clio. Why does it have to be Turbo'd? So you can tell people down the pub you got Turbo?

Focus RS. Just cool. Should hold value with it being an RS, meant to be a cracking car. And not many about!

If its between the Clio and Corsa I'd go Clio. The Corsa is just a bit too showy for me which is shame as its meant to be about as good as the Clio.

If its between the Corsa and the Focus RS then I'd go for the RS. Every year I go to the Cumbria RSOC show and come away wanting one

Went to the Vauxhall dealers to find abiyt more info and they had a white astra vxr that special edition one it was fuckin awesome...Was 22k tho which is way out of my price range...

He done me a deal on the corsa Vxr with some Extras 19'' with bluetooth and climate pack 13,540 which worked out at 282quid a month But he didnt have the Corsa VXR to test drive so i test drove the astra instead which is fuckin awesome But its near 17k which is alot more than i could afford...I dont really wanna work and just pay for just a car...

Gonna see what Insurance is like on the Focus RS turbo...
The 197 isnt really swaying me...I just want the Feel of a turbo car really....

But that Astra VXR in white was just sex....But was 475 a month lol

The astra VXR is a diesel and is pretty impressive, far to expensive tho

Test drive a Mazda 3 MPS mate just to see what its like you'll be soooo impressed

I think he means the Nurburgring mate, not 888.

edit- Out of the Corsa and 197, I'd have the 197 in white or liquid yellow every time

The 888's are the ones that are Diesels. The 'ring ones and VXR's are both petrol turbos

Out of the cliop and the corsa its a toughie.

In the latest autocar test the clio came 1st the corsa 2nd. Both handle amazingly apprently, the clio slightly better, but the corsa is slightly faster and has more tuning options.

Im not sure which id pick, but FUCK ME how nice is that red one Matt posted
