Different league. Not comparing like for like as the mk4 was lowered and had smaller tyres but that one is significantly better. Slower though.

Not sure, I read something about having plastic parts replaced with metal ones? It's going in for EML so I have them check it then.

If people ask me what I drive and I say Corsa they think boy racer. If I say Freelander or Discovery they think farmer. If I say Astra they nod and think nice sensible hatchback.

A sensible car, not somewhere to peddle his wares.

A track prepped SEC on the other hand, that would just be newsworthy.

This is so true.

I went from Corsa "boy racer" to calibra "seedy" to Astra "chav" to BMW "wanker"

Why not reply with "a Car", would have been cheaper than having to buy that astra.

My other one was great to look at but not so good to drive. In fact it was terrible.
