Lewis Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 lol, I don't hide under a bushel, I just reflected on what I wrote and decided it wasn't worth it. And the quote quite often lies actually lol. And michael, your quote was supposed to make ou that my highlighted comment was snide? I think it was anything but, it was as blatant and prominent as possible. hey ho! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKEYmark Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 i like it. i alwso think the turbo vx is a car with potential.its a light weight car. the astra gsi in white looks great. a mate has a well tuned gsi 2l 16v turbo with nos my first good car was a mk2 astra gte 1.8l 8v thought it was rapid at the time. have had a 1.4l vauxhall runabout and boy that was rubbish and no power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael parker Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 I had a vectra 2.5 V6 when i was 21, loved it. Theres nothing wrong with them, most VX are good reliable cars, You go getta Soop, you'll love it, except for the vast loss in boot space....but i can think of 000's of reasons that'll not bother you:clap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigst200 Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 the space is the only thing stoppin me from gettin one but i dont really want to go down the scooby path, not that theres anything wrong with them, its just coz theres a load of scoobys down this way and not alot of supra's and i like to be different, my m8 had a cavi turbo runnin at 450bhp but he spent best part of 20k but the let it go for under 3k.

slick Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Oh hello. Wondered when you'd be here craig (bob here as I was on the forum). Well you used to race Evo's and M3's with your vectra so god knows what you'll be racing while you've borrowed that supra, mind at least it won't be as likely to be bullshit Just don't chav it up before you give it your mate back, mind they don't do lexus lights for the supe as far as I know Drive steady now, its a fast RWD car not a FWD family saloon as I found out quick enough.

craigst200 Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 alright bob, it was amazing car to drive m8, i htought iwas good when the first turbo cut in but when the second cut in, well, we were hittin speed within seconds, apparently its had a far bit done to it, but give it 1-2yrs and ill be bk on here with one.

SkyJawa Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Always preferred the Mondy ST myself - a far better drive/chassis, but each to their own, looks a tidy car, shame about the wank rear clusters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyh Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 i was always a vauxhall man before my supra i found that vauxhalls were a very reliable cars. the c20xe and c20let lumps were great engines i had a astra mk3 turbo before the supra completly different car but still great fun and very under estimated, as for the vx220 turbo they are very fast bottom end i believe they run a 4 sec 0-60. but would never trade the supra after owning one:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Ok well I have had a mk2 gte (cosworth engine) which was ok, but not good. Strange thing really, it was nippy in a straight line but didnt like the bendy bits! Had an Impreza as well but now I have my Supra and havnt looked back! Although I do seem to look through the side windows from time to time especialy in the wet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digsy Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 At least Lotus managed to put one of their cars right. [edit] two. Well, strictly speaking Lotus didn't put the VX right as it wasn't designed by Vauxhall in the first place vx220, are you mad.............. it bas bmx width font wheels. ...to give it neutral handling. The Elise (unsurprisingy) has skinny front wheels too. If it didn't it would oversteer all over the place. I don't think too many people would say that either car handles badly. But if all you look for in a car is fat wheels then you're probably right - don't buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
