Corsa VXR review, good read, they like it, but reckon the brakes are crap (they got a bit hot )
Nova is nice, rest of the cars are average.
And the staff cars they should just give up.

This month, they have put standard brakes on the Omega, the orange Corsa isn't mentioned.
Dougie has bought a 1.4 Mk3 Cavalier, he also has a Belmont SRi (which appears in this month's), Mk2 SRi130 (broken), Mk3 Gsi 4x4 (rusty) and a sheddy 20SEH mk3 SRi (rusty).
Dan has a Mk1 Astra SR with a smokey engine and a new engine which isn't built yet.
Barton has a Bedford Rascal (seriously) and has put a twin carbon backbox on it 
Chip has a Calibra Turbo, which is ok.
Shocking.

They were driving it very quickly round a track for a long time though, most brakes get hot if you do that They just said that for frequent track day driving, you'd want the 343mm upgrade
