Comfort - Good
Handling - Not the best
Good build quaility, and look like a hot hatch should.

Thanks, The saxo is much better in standard form than my saxo was.. But its very very twitchy on the back end in the wet  where as the corsa wasn't..
The one im buying has had a stage 1 and is running just over 200bhp..
A good car to get after a saxo or would you recommend something else?

Alot of VTS/GTI owners go Vag ive noticed...
Ive not had any problems with the saxo at all but I think its time to move on to something more mature if you like

That's because they want some quality 
IMO the VTR runaround i have now is the best handling car i've owned! Even beats my 106 GTI which was lowered but i found to 'Snappy' on the limit.
The Fabia VRS i had was decent enough.They had quite a hard set up.Although a bit roly poly.

Nothing wrong with my saxo.
Only bought it for a car I could keep for a year and not loose too much money.
And its serving me well. I let my mate (vtr owner) drive it a few miles today..
He loved it, everything felt so different.. Handling, steering, pedals.
I drove his too
If im ever short of cash and I need to sell the cupra..
a vts is what il be buying 
But back on convo...
Anyone driven one after a stage one map?
