i take back

had a VTS today to take for an MOT at work

is such a laugh, handles so so much better than a standard corsa, even mine possibly

just genrally driving feels alot more intresting than the corsa, and are so much better than i thought originally

doesnt feel as stable, corsa feels much more sure footed but saxo turns in so much better

would love the opertunity to drive one round a track

Did you like the plastic seats, door cards, windows, doors, engine, steering wheel, everything?

The Saxo is the worst offender for over use of plastic though. Corsa's have trimmed bits in the interior. Saxo's don't

Surely no interior = no rattles? Or would that make too much sense

its the fact that if you hit something your gonna die

corsa's fold, but even the really bad crashes ive seen the person is generally ok
where as a crash half as bad in a saxo ive seen the guy die
