regal 407bhp mk5
Audi S3 400bhp
Astra VXR 420BHP
Focus ST a mere 327bhp!!!

anyone notice that the VXR power in the acceleration is lower than every other model even though the all produce less power. its practically equivalent to the focus which is 100bhp less. what a bag of spag.
Its quite an interesting read actually

[/quote407bhp
Golf (claimed to be the UK’s fastest mk5)[/quote] how would this have rated to jonnyc ed30??

snapey:
I'm sure this was in evo about 4/5 months ago, either way at the time it made good reading.

Hurdy:
Yes it was.

I have it in my back catalogue :happy2:

Regals car has more power now too :innocent:

Janner_Sy:
ah, dont read evo often, normally has cars way outta my league, prefer performance car magazine myself.

Cant believe how bad the VXR is, that is a poorly put together package.
that little side article with the corsa VXR saying it was going ot have a crack at the nurburgring R26R lap record, dont know how that'll owrk, if the meganne gets a remap+ a few choicegoodies that corsa aint touching it.

Even with 465hp it was no where near unfortunately..
