GM targeting Golf GTI

[mfl]

The question was do Vauxhalls handle ?. based on the models I owned/drove no, because I don't like understeer as the primary handling trait, can the VXR models have different handling characteristics yes, it just needs suspension settings/set-up to be significantly different to what Vauxhall does, its a bit like comparing HSV models with run of the mill Commodores or AMG Mercs to every day ones.

The topic is about the next Astra GTC and in particular about the OPC/VXR models that no one has driven yet. Shouldn't we wait to see how it drives before making any judgments?

I am (and I think mfl is) saying that I expect that this new Astra VXR WILL handle well with the Hiper Strut front end unlike the current and previous Astra ranges.
