1) what ever the 100bhp is (vtr ?) feels quicker than a sport 1.6

2) they handel far far better than any corsa including mine ive driven, they piss on a standard one

3) people who knock the build quality, WTF do you expect, its a small light french hatchback, its hardly goign to be built liek a merc is it

IT depends what you want from a car. JR I could say that your points are bollocks because I like a car with a nice interior, comfy and doesnt fall to pieces in a light breeze, hence I think corsas are better cars.

I could have had a stripped out 1600 corsa right now rather than my Ibiza, but i like climate control and little screens that tell me my MPG. Its all down to what people want in a Car.

Indeed no questions about it even a VTR is quicker than a 1.6 Sport. People are often misguided by their Rose Tinted Corsa Glasses

If a VTR with a filter and exhaust system and decat can run a 15.9 standing quarter (at the Pod) i'd put my money on the Saxo every time. They just have the right power to weight ratio and gearing IMO

However due to the lack of torque they have as soon as you put another person in the car performance is hampered slightly

People who havent driven one are just plain idiots to write them off without any constructive points
