Is the astra a 1.6 8v? Ive got one of them and its not exactly fast, wouldnt say either where so bhp figures are probably irrelevant, probably not much in it power to wieght.

Whats the question exactly? How much more bhp has the astra got or which is quicker? Id say the Astra would be quicker.
Edit: Oh its a 1.4... the corsa then.

That'll be the 1.4 16v SRi which you don't have?
The Corsa will probably be slightly quicker regardless.
