I have to say, i really dislike them (looks-wise).
Granted, they go well etc etc, but i think they are really quite chavvy and look like a Nike training shoe......
Id prefer the older Vaux's myself....
Anyone else feel this?

Love them personally. Wish I'd bought one when I got the Civic. If some of you lads actually drove one I'm sure you'd love it.

Id feel much the same driving a Corsa B with a Combat kit on TBH.
Until i got out of town and gave it a leathering of course.

I'm not a massive fan, would never buy one but there are some tasty looking ones about. Specifically that Nurburg with white wheels (not the standard white wheels)

Bloody mingin. I don't know how anyone could own one.
Nah...seriously, whatever floats ya boat. I love mine but wouldn't expect everyone to like it!! it would be boring if everyone had the same taste. I think some of the cars on here are awful, but that just my opinion!
And the Nike trainer/Chavvy comment......I think this is true only if a Chav is driving one, which thankfully not many do.

Yeah ive never really been a fan. The look does nothing for me.
I prefer the look of the diesels with the exterior pack.
If it has to be a VXR then in red all polished up with some BBS for me plz

Why cant people have an opinion on it regardless of what they drive? Let them have theirs and you have yours.

I've no problem with opinions at all as I put in my post, but tbh, if someone driving a 1.0 corsa B with some Ripspeed add ons, says that my 285bhp Stage 2 VXR which goes like stink and handles like its on rails is chavvy, I think they are taking the piss.
