going to be getting rid of the corsa soon and been looking at these, the volvo c70, what do people think of them, im going for the 2.3 t5 gt model they running around 240bhp and do 0-60 just under 7 seconds, apart from the performance side they look a really nice car, im also ashuming there reliable as the police use the same engine in there police cars

I looked at them, people still ask for much much more money than I thought they were worth, good apart from that, comfy and fast enough.

Ex police cars are cool, my uncle had a Vectra V6 GSi ex police car and that was running around 200bhp and was in some sort of rapid response thing

A 19 year old in a corsa will clearly be a better driver.

Not saying im a better driver. But they are shit, i watch road wars alot, seen an Astra VXR leave T5 for dead, and an MX5 (RWD), go through muddy terain and loose an undercover car Scooby (4wd)
Also at cruise near me, seen a 2.0 corsa get chased round car park, took corner, copper tried taking same corner and went straight cause he was going too fast.

The police have to worry about things like pedestrians and other innocent people, unlike the tosser running away from them.
i'm still at you being an expert because you watch road wars
