Lol, good point, probebly only 1 out of ten of us are good drivers, so this surly cater's for those other 9.

I'm not an amazing driver, but i'm not the worst, I remember when i loaned my M5 to a proffetional driver (own's a 600+bhp starion and races it regulary) and said scare the shit out of me, he didn't hoof it other than in a straight line, through fear ? cost ? even I drove it more vioently than he. What ever, but i bet if i stuck him in one of those micra's with-in 30 mins he'd be laughin his tit's off and wangin the thing all over the place.


Uncertainty or not knowing causes depression, Im happy because I know I'm going to die one day!

nope..it seems your missing the point by saying a micra goes from being a crap car to a great car by merely bolting on a crappy turbo...
Hence why its still a crap car!

You lost still ranting about this haha, its a Micra, its a fast Micra, its a car that people will buy, if, and thats a big if, but if it ever sees the light of day in the UK.

Im wondering if Audi is worried that the next generation of boy racers will be buying these, and he won't be able to keep up with them around the built up housing estates - joke lol.

I think ye should agree to disagree, because it is all based upon opinion's, some people hate the idea of a powerful engine lumped into a small and built for 60bhp cars (my dad can't stand anything below a 3L unless he has to for instance), other people do like them.

Its a no win situation hehe.

The new engine will put the car into the same league as the Corsa VXR.... is that a bad car?

Its a Corsa, which means I hate it, but I dont doubt its hndling and speed capabilities. This micra will be the same...it wont just be a crap bag of nails, itll be a full works, Fast, good handling small performance car. And it probably wont break after 4 miles.

Its a vauxhall..i fkin hate vauxhalls....


comparing a turbod micra to a corsa vxr is fine..they are BOTH shit!

A good car is something like a BMW m3...or Audi rs4...THOSE are industry standards for what defines good handling/power balance..
ie a good car!

Trying to say a turbod micra is anything more than a polished turd is complete CRAP.


Im deadly serious about this...go test drive a few proper cars...and go and drive the crappy turbod micra.....then you will see my point that no matter what you do to a micra...its still a fookin turd at the end of the day.

Come on, you have to admit chasing chav ... is fun. Gets the blood and adrenaline pumping laugh

My New car, the 146 is rated well up in the handling wall of fame. Ill stick with that rather than testing a lump of German Metal cheers.

The MKII Escort and Escort Cosworth rallycars I drove 3 years ago were brilliant handling cars. I dont need to drive a Boring/Bland/Unimaginative M3. Absolute waste of money in my view.

nice motor and indeed it handles well...

However go and drive an rs4 hard and then tell me its "bland". My works 330 certainly wasnt bland!

when your suitably qualified and experienced in driving...come back and tell someone who gives a shit!

no...i just cant believe so called "car enthusiasts" can be so blinkered as to what constitutes a "great car".

a turbo micra is not a great car..thats all im saying.

a micra is a crap car..bolting on a turbo doesnt change it from a crap car to a great one....
