As standard on par with an XE corsa up to 80ish. Tried and tested by me and a friend. But for little money can be made quicker due to being turbo'd.

Black one looks good and has had money spent in the right areas like the TRD coilovers etc. Handling wise, I found my mates Glanza handled better with the same set up as my corsa. Reliability, didnt ever step a foot wrong and it took a beating. Why I own a Vauxhall I dont know

Wheres the clip of yours lee. I thought yours sound good IIRC.
Alot of them do sound shit though, tend to me due to the shit exhaust. Some ragtop corsa;s around here sound the same because they go to some shit custom place that puts a 'str8 thru' with that massive thing back box
