because its an awesome drivers car and ahndles better than any other FWD machine of all time?
My dad has an ST170 and does 0-60 in 7.9 seconds. That is a hot hatch.

i would describe it as a warm hatch
The original GSi did it in less than 9 seconds though 
it did it in bang on 9 secs accoding to TV

Speaking of hot hatches, what about the EK9 Civic Type R 1.6/185bhp@8200rpm?
0-60 in 5.7sec as standard!

Disagree with that... a 106rallye or gti will rape it on corners

did you ever see the Top Gear verdict on the Focus RS? it whooped most 4WD cars round the track! How will a measly 106 corner better standard?!? SXi boy, if you go by what TV say, then you are very VERY gullable.

But i think the S2 Rallye as standard will handle better due to being lighter
And saying that the S1 rallye is even lighter

Since when were we talking aboutmy corsa being slow? 0-60 in 18 seconds is slow. 0-60 in 9 seconds is not slow, but its not that fast either. you drive a 1.2 16v anyhow? WTF?!?

I have a SAxo with a turbo 2.0 cavalier engine in and i will do 0-60 in 4.5 seconds, i would wank all over your corsa and leave cum stains on the steering wheels !

yeh so what my sxi was my first car and its done me proud, but now im after something fast, a clio 16v
0-60 in 9 secs is certainly not fast, when u consider that most family saloons are around the 9 sec mark

Isn't all this getting away from the SAXO'S v CORSA'S though.
In ultimate form(so far)the Corsa was the quickest.
The times have been set and are their for all to try and beat.
