Sort of conversation you'd expect to hear in a McDonalds car park.

Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

astra has no chance on the twisty bits. but can probably cruise down in chav city with booming "choonz", under car lighting and a halfrauds strap on back 'box better than you.

Oi, behave, i have an indy R1 and an astra VXR. Astra has none of the above chav mods but i can tell you with a stage 2 remap and exhaust, RARB and DAP springs you would be surprised how quick they are. 290bhp. And i'm 39.

I thought the Vauxhall VXR Nurburgring was AWD, am I wrong?

Your car is less Practical which means its better, because it says your a man who doesn't make compromises, or some thing equally macho.

Do you really care to be honest?

No the Nurburgring is FWD same as regular VXR. Apart from colour,trim and wheels the only mechanical difference is a full Remus exhaust which gives around 18bhp over standard

You could always get together and do a trackday, have fun and see who is fastest where. The Indy will be faster up to 100 ish but then the VXR will be stronger with much better aerodynamics.

It's a bit irrelevant, it will only be a little while before he tanks the VXR showing off to his mates
