Clio 200 vs corsa vxr burg vs golf gti mk5!

[Yiannis197]

The car might not be fast on paper, but you'd think you're going fast because of all the good sensations you get driving it. That's good enough for me.

This. In everything in life it's all about the pleasure you are getting right???

Don't kid yourself that driving a car with Bilstein Dampers and a Drexler LSD wont feel pleasureable....

I'm surprised to be fair!

Having driven a Burg round Rockingham recently, I'm not surprised. I drove a standard VXR then jumped straight into a Burg and they are a world apart. Still need to be 20st plus before the seats grip you properly. That is my only issue.

for me the corsa Burg outshone everything at rockingham. VX have had a mahoosive problem with a miss spec'd diff in the new astra though so it would be nice to try them side by side again

Happiness even at a 40mph cruise. :thumbup1:

The big question is, who'd come out on top?! Having a big debate with mates! Both the corsa & the golf is good handling wise but is it as good as a 200?! Baring in mind i live on b roads, so who'd win? Doesnt matter about straight line speed! Help...

Standard Golf GTI? Edition 30 might edge it given the extra power and the ring being a power track as a thought. They don't handle too bad either.
