lol... Not about the astras... and not heard much about the VXR, however my girls brother has a VXR, in red.. i aint seen it yet, but i do like them, however.. seems to be the new subaru kinda.. everyones got one / had one.. The corsa, i had a test drive in one of these with no intention of buyin, however it wasnt all that fast as others have already written.. There was a white one around my area, seen my car, and fancied his chances up a hill.. unfortunately for him, i pulled infront of him and into the lane i needed into.. he was defo going for it though as his car dropped a gear and went for it.. ( it never lasted long ) CK
