Craig, its completely different to a Corsa LET.
Motorway stormer yes, backroad terrier? No.
Very well built, practical and solid and they look cool as fuck 
But a corsa Let is terribly exciting, these are a different type of car....

yeh i get what you mean,but i'm thinking it's worth swapping the excitment for the comfort,reliability and just a generally nicer car.plus you can make them pretty quick to.
and i have to agree they are a great looking car,but ive never heard anyone say anything good about them.

They get a bad press.
Its not going to be the best drivers car ever, but its capable. Its just the whole "feel" of the car.
I miss mine in comparisson to my M3 because it was smaller and more "nippy".
Good cruisers and very well equiped. Very modern feel to it compare to a Corsa b.
Id have another.

Yeah you cant see fuck all out the astra full stop tbh
The nose dips away, the sides are high and the boot has the (vision)spoiler across it, i hated parking it 
M3 is easier

Looks ace mate
I am with jr and co though anthra wheels would be nicer. But as with all black wheels I am sure they look better in the flesh then in pics I know my corsa ones always did.
Drives supercharged Tec with torque
