Probs should be moving on again then pretty soon, going by your previous theory.

Do like this shape, but it has to be an SRI turbo or GSI for me to buy one

why you say that? It looks good, decent seats, far from a slouch. Not hard to sort out the handling. Better than a dated shite BMW...

Any need to be such a cunt?
Every Tom dick and fucking chavvy harry has a vxr. Common as muck and all driven like dick stains that think they're on need for speed underground. Get off your high horse not everyone can afford to spend as much on a car.
You really do come across on this forum as if you think your life is 'THE' life.
Ps you 'had' one.

Are you the same fella that had 10k for a house deposit, then an M3, and you've ended up with a VXR?

I'm already on one. 3rd year of uni doing well also worked hard for my daily driver and mini. Maybe one day you'll own a car half as impressive as a mini like mine. That id like to add is probably worth twice your beloved VXR is.

I have most of one saved as well but no need buying a house whilst as uni is there and no need mentioning on a forum for little reason other than to brag. Nothing wrong with an sri is there if that's what's in his budget.
It's not jealously when my car stands out far more than a vxr? And goes up in value not down.
Why knock his new car. He's happy with it.

the astra feels better to drive than the saxo not worried about anything falling off or breaking lol the saxo is a nice drive to as it handles well but the astra isnt far off and its a bigger car the astra drives smoothly
p.s mini will out handle all the above

mine also has the same kit, very rare and was only fitted to a limited number of SRI models, mine is now on 110k and still runs alright just replaced the starter motor and she starts first time daily, i just find it so boring to drive compared to the s with only 136bhp and the weight of a plane

i find mine quite exciting you have more of a feel for the road than a saxo and the breaks actually stop you
