Good Points

Looks good, nice when lowered, brisk acceleration.
Go-kart handling.


Bad Points

Boy-racer image! Too small, engine not refined, feels like you killing it at speed.


General Comments

I have a Astra SRi Turbo 52 reg ,with 250 bhp,5 sec 0-60 sprint and 162 flat out at Santa Pod!!
I have just bought a Citroen Saxo VTS it's a nice car but that's all it is. In no where near the league as my Astra Turbo, she would destroy Saxos within the first few yards. More comfortable, refined,and handling than the Saxo any day, but it is a different class!!

    I think anyone who slates this beauty of a car needs their head testing. Mine is lowered with 16's on it and it has spax suspension. It has a four branch manifold heat wrapped and a nice exhaust that's loud when I put my foot down but quiet when I'm driving slow. This is the best car I have had and I would definitely recommend this car to others. It's a great car for modding if that's what your into but it's also a great car for your mum. A definite thumbs up from me.

    I agree with what you're saying in principal, but then why would you go to a BMW M3 review forum if you drove a Ferrari Scaglietti? Of course your Vauxhall would knock the socks of a Saxo, but then how many Astra's are knocking around in good nick for 1500 notes? Plus, you would need to re-mortgage your house to pay for the insurance on an Astra turbo if you're under 25. Anyway, get an R32 Golf if you want performance....give the VTS to your missus like me!!!!
