I have a hot hatch your can review. Scooby sti 400bhp.

[@mikebs7404]

Noticed it straight away. Suits it well 😂

[@BillyRS]

Very umm... Cheeky ;) ;)

[@CalvinsCarDiary]

I like Corsa VXR’s. A lot.

[@ravenmindd]

owned one for 3 years and absolutely loved it! brilliant little pocket rockets you can have a lot of fun in, treated mine well with warming up and cooling down every drive and it looked after me. Only disadvantages would be the paint is known for bring a little on the thin side and the Recaro seats and known for the edges to come apart from the base nothing to major! Would encourage anyone to go for one!

[@sprayaho1ic]

People comparing this to the Fiesta ST have to remember how much newer the ST's are in design. These things were kicking about in 2007, and are still fun to drive/ comparable to the current competition now. Most piston 4 problems are down to either people modding these cars without upgrading the almost maxed fuel injectors, or by driving them hard when they are cold.

[@another3997]

Mark Scott The previous generation ST was around in 2007. There was an official Mountune version somewhere along the line. Not that I particularly like the Ford, but the Corsa VXR looks like a child's toy.

[@tommcmahon14]

A Nother the Mk6 fiesta ST that the ford fuck boys should be relating to the Corsa vxr instead of the new 2013+ shape fiesta was a 2.0l naturally aspirated pushing 150 hp. It was also very front end heavy. both the Corsa and fiesta of the same era are good cars but people need to stop relating to an almost 10 year old car to a 4 year old one.

[@RobMarx23]

Totally agree, my last car was a 2007 Corsa VXR which I ran from 60,000 - 104,000 miles. Never once did the engine miss a beat due to it being standard (would've obviously uprated the injectors if I were to map it), serviced regularly and being allowed to warm up before driven hard. All of this P4 shit is simply caused by idiotic chavs who have no clue about car maintenance running them into the ground. +A Nother The Mk6 Fiesta was a total joke in comparison to the Corsa VXR, the engine was severely underpowered and lacked any tuning potential, excessively front heavy, handled like shit and the styling of it (especially compared to the Corsa) was dated and ugly. When you have a Corsa D VXR in front of you, there's absolutely no mistaking it for a standard SXI or SRI, the same definitely cannot be said for the Fiesta.

[@rosskopeekoracing]

just bought a lime green corsa e vxr with performance pack :D was never a fan of vauxhall and hated the stigma around them but you know what. i love it and who cares. you only live once :D

[@vauxhallmadnessuk5923]

Great video. Yes these cars do get shat on, but oh well. Most of the people who have owned vxr's always say how much fun they are, and have regretted selling them.

[@Baz79H]

My previous car was actually an Arden blue 12 plate Corsa VXR ( A16LER ) absolutely loved it , cracking little cars , mine was very well looked after , the pops bangs and whooshes and it would spit flames lol, I’ve heard all the horror story’s Piston no 4 ect etc , but mine was actually mechanical reliable, but watch for rear shocks and rear wheel bearings going on them ,these are only simple things ,,,, definitely a recommended wee car ,I had such good fun in mine ,but traded her in for a nice big vRS , I needed the room ,for my two dogs etc etc 😎👍

[@R77DVR]

Usual VXR hate train I see. Jokers. Usually most who negative comment have no experience of the car in question. 🙄

[@ScottPC]

R77 DVR I've had experience in one.. then I left the drive thru...

[@s1krryo626]

R77 DVR owned 2. There okay. But the main problem is 4th piston failure. The z16 leh is an OK platform.

[@R77DVR]

TANDEM boii you are right it's not a bad lump. As daft as it sounds a soft stage 1 engine with uprated injectors is probably safer than a one on a standard map with standard injectors. A chap I know was running one with a decent map, bigger injectors and a K06 Turbo running 280ish on standard internals.. sounds mental but it's was all fine for a long time!

[@craig522gtx-vxr6]

TANDEM boii Different car altogether once forged. The engine is very efficient and revs to almost 9k. do away with the cast pistons and you can pretty much go as big as you like

[@mudguardrider8211]

I owned a Corsa VXR back in 2010. I modded it slightly - Remus exhaust, centre pipe delete, superchips bluefin stage 2 via Thorney motorsport. The issues I had were - seat clip broke preventing access to back. heaters only worked on number 4 setting. New rear wheel bearings. air con pipe snapped. Suspension mount broke on front passenger side. sold the car on 30k. until recently I owned a 2014 Fiesta ST2 - much more capable car. build quality better and cornered like a housefly. I now own a BMW M135i - totally different kettle of fish.

[@Minibeatz_mmltuaiay]

Okay the car is nice! but one thing that set this video apart straight away from other videos is the way this guy edits! you can tell her clearly puts pride in his channel and videos!! great job mate!!!

[@JohnSmith-hn6zc]

Everyone banging on about ST’s 😂.. MATE. There’s a financed ST on the corner of every street! There as common as dog sh*t and owned by mammys boys. F**k the haters

[@funnygamestv8162]

Alex Baker Well said Alex. My mum has got an ST lol but you’re right about their being seen a lot. I currently have a Fiesta Zetec S for my first car but I’m hoping to get an A45 AMG, you a fan of them :)?

[@gmain1977]

Yes common as they offer value at a price you can afford

[@eternal7082]

Most people hating haven’t ever driven one. I test drove one when I was looking to sell my old Leon Cupra R and I’m not being funny but it’s a lot more fun than you’d think.. forget the corsa stigma it was so much more fun than the Cupra I had, the exhaust pops just brought out my inner kid haha

[@JohnSmith-dg9sy]

love Corsa's got a facelift 1.3ctdi LE as my daily and I managed to get a written off 'burg that I put the front end of a GTC vxr in, pushing 350hp and close to 4 secs 0-60 I'm not far from pompey so if you're still down south I could let you take it for a spin

[@louisjames1062]

I buy and assess around a hundred cars a month, the only cars i see with 1980s faults (not caused by lack of maintenance) and headgaskets blown are vauxhalls, nearly all have eml lights on, smoke big ends, gearbox faults etc etc, good value for money but, like Peugeots, needs binning at 40k.

[@blizzardwolftv5957]

I own a corsa c 1.2 2006 still going at 107k?

[@jimojar]

i owned one of these. great for a fun back road car but seriously unreliably. My gearbox went at 23,000 miles paint was bubbling, interior fans barely worked and air-con pipe blew off. but i have to say out of all the cars I've owned this was my favourite due to the near death experience of trying to keep it on the road while going round corners. But only thing i disagree with was the fuel economy, i could barely get 220 miles out of a full tank.

[@evsy21201]

I just bought a 09 vxr with full service history and it’s on 49000 miles. Within a week it had seals and bearings needed in gearbox and 5th and 6th gear hub assembly. And then the concentric slave cylinder. Absolute nightmare

[@9N3]

Bye bye 4th piston 😂💨

[@Joseph.92]

ZS Jord fuck piston 4 lmao engine can be replaced your life cant

[@Joseph.92]

Layton Dunkley all cars can have engine failure its a car lol you cant predict when your gonna have problems touch wood vxr hasnt had any problems its been reliable and has health checks nothing wrong with it plus its cheap to insure with 8 years no claims and look apart on the road

[@bigdaddy6840]

U need to research more bout the 4th piston bollocks knobhead

[@adventuresofzukoandcoco9817]

It starts to go when the car isn’t warmed up or cooled down properly constantly.

[@carlbroughton5625]

after owning a corsa vxr i had throttle body go at the beginning but its a sweet car to drive ! , loving it :)

[@DJ-yj5zs]

Surprised people hate on the VXR range, both Corsa and Astra VXR’s surprised me when driving them. Build quality is decent, power especially in the Astra is crazy and leaves competitors way behind. Obviously like any car if they have been modified and ragged reliability will be questionable. Shame they get a bad rep, lovely cars.

[@BWTV]

Decent cars to be honest with you. My mate had one a while ago, I was suprised a Corsa could reach 200bhp, especially on a 1.6 litre. Put my 1.8T golf to shame 😂 But ofcourse it's still a Corsa, and I would much rather own my golf 😎

[@MrLarryhoover425]

BWTV you were surprised a 1.6 turbo could reach 200bhp!??? Just how fucking stupid are you???

[@s1krryo626]

old larry exceptionally stupid.

[@holyecstasy168]

He owns a golf probably pretty stupid

[@carlbroughton5625]

can i be honest this make me feel at ease!

[@checkyourself164]

200hp from a 1.6 wasn't impressive even 15 years ago. You had naturally aspirated 1.6's making 185hp over 20 years ago even.. Let alone turbo ones.

[@ZenvoEvolution]

Currently saving to get an Arden Blue one in March18. They get a lot of hate but look better than all the competition, Fiesta ST’s are also newer remember

[@archiebrannan5854]

Forged corsa nurburgring with ko4 goes very well

[@kylebaldwin4325]

Good video, put your advice to use yesterday when I bought a Burg edition from a main dealer with 1 year warranty etc. Can't wait to see what it can do properly.

[@mrdayumfine109]

The best thing about Corsa VXRs is that when the 19 year old dick heads understeer them into a tree, you can buy the Recaros from them cheap in a SPARES/REPAIR Advert...

[@BillyRS]

Put aside the 4th piston, 14 year old girlfriend, and McDonalds jokes, these are bloody good little cars. Still wouldn't see me dead in one though, I'd pick the ST any day!!

[@danwilliams2995]

I have a 205bhp Clubsport VXR (facelift) comes standard with a LSD bilstein suspension and remus exaust from standard and also big 4pot brembos all factory... be interesting to see you drive one of them see how you feel about the difference

[@dair919]

Decent cars. Used to own one from new back in 2008. A few years later the head gasket blew. Whole engine had to be replaced. Had the VXL inspectors reviewing the car and all sorts.... Cut a long story short. They replaced the engine for me. So thumbs up to VXL for that. Cause of the issue.... Leaky Radiator. Anyway. Fun car back in my early 20s!

[@harryellisrules]

I’m 19 and own an Arden blue 2009 corsa vxr. Really enjoy owning the car. It’s really well looked after and haven’t had any issues with it. I’m not the typical corsa vxr owner it seems. I’ve got warranty on it just in case though.

[@connorvxr4279]

[@chriselse515]

I'm a Ford guy thru and thru but I do like this gen corsa and astra vxr I know they get a bad rep and are not that reliable but there is something about there yobish nature I like look great in red and I wish my fiesta st popper and banged with just a exhaust change

[@joshuatombstonegraves7493]

I’ve got a 2007 Fiesta Mk6 ST and some random kid with a green VXR Corsa yelled at me saying my Ford was shit, he looked about 17 lol. These are very good little cars but some of the drivers are arseholes from my experience. No hate to the good VXR owners here. Nice review Jamie :D

[@joshuatombstonegraves7493]

+JOE 92 Yeah it’s a genuinely nice looking motor mate, I don’t hate cars either :)

[@Br07dom97]

Terrible haha I had a 2007 fiesta st mk6 they were incredible almost like a go karts, then got a green corsa vxr! Both brilliant cars but never one fault with my mk6 as for the vxr had the engine forged new turbo new everything due to faults

[@joshuatombstonegraves7493]

+Dom Brown I’ve owned my Fiesta since I was 19 and the only thing I’ve had to get repaired was a rear wheel bearing. Anything else was upgrades or refurbishment work. Solid little cars when they’re looked after.

[@joshuatombstonegraves7493]

+JOE 92 Yeah I think they look pretty good in my opinion and the hate they get is pretty unfair. I learnt to drive in one after all. I’m a Ford guy completely but I respect other makes and have experience with most.

[@carlbroughton5625]

Can i just say not been a good day , yesterday i went to go pick up my 09 plate vxr which i payed a little more than usual as in Cornwall car prices are higher i dont mind as its local. went to turn it on and it had the a misfire ! a day into buying so its back to the garage this morning thank god its under warranty but still ! . i have not even had the chance to drive it to give my proper opinion i drove in like 2 and a bit miles carefully . will keep you guys posted i am not saying its bad it can happen or it could be simple but if i was anyone on here buying one i am thinking of doing a honest mans review of one on KZbin with things you can do and dont do's .

[@tomevans5934]

Yea was considering a corsa vxr but went for mk7 fiesta st just less in your face and handles better

[@aiddybhoy82]

I have a stage 1 2009 plate corsa vxr putting out 230bhp well (229.7bhp) and its one of the most fun cars i have had,fingers crossed my piston 4 stays intact😂

[@JMcKaySV]

Lol at people who love to hate on VXRs. I owned a VXRacing Corsa for about 12 months and drove the shit out of it. I've owned 2 106 GTi's and a Clio 172 Cup I can safely say the VXR handled just as well and is a properly fun hot-hatch to own. You obviously don't get the same 'raw' feeling as the 106 or Clio but I still enjoyed it hugely. Being the Racing model it also had stunning heated leather Recaros which were just godly on cold winter mornings. Plus it running a Remus Decat, best sounding car I've owned, so much fun.

[@JMcKaySV]

Just to add, I think the Corsa VXR has the meanest looking rear-end out of any hot-hatch on the road these days.

[@mattmiller6857]

In the “EU” the seats can be fitted to any spec corsa from factory

[@joshpearson2529]

What about the burg corsa? Much better than the standard VXR imo 👌

[@davespooney8472]

The funny thing about VXR's is the idiots slating their image - like the Fiesta ST isn't a chav machine also! Chav in ST looks down their nose at Chav in VXR.

[@vx4716]

[@s1krryo626]

Carl Broughton there OK cars. Z16leh engine is alright. If you decide to get I mapped. Get rabbid to do it. Or a reputable mapper. These are known for blowing up or 4th piston failure. Other than that. Find a well mantained one. Keep it survived regular. And always run it on shell optimax or 110 octane. They run a lot better with higher octane fuel. Handling wise not much needs to be done. Set of springs. Whiteline anti roll bar and a LSD and there like a good kart lol. Avoid the ignition cut. Ticking time bomb. Decent miltek exhaust. Panel filter. Jobs a good un. If you ever need to renew the turbo. Use a ko3 turbo. Avoid dump valves. Sound cool but In time the z16leh isn't fond of it. So just keep the recirculation valve on.

Besides all the generic jokes about this car & wet wipes getting there fat ass ego out. This car is brilliant, I’ve owned one for almost 1 year now & I regret nothing, I’m a car enthusiast, bought one when I was 19 years old & worked my ass off to buy & maintain it. All worth it & this car did not disappoint me at all. The sound, the power, the drive, all something you have to experience yourself to really appreciate it. Besides all the faults this car may or may not have, if you look after your car, it will look after you. And if you’re thinking of commenting “Chavy” “the ST’s are better” “Bye piston 4” then don’t waste your time. I could not give a flying fuck. :)

[@another3997]

Daznick Because at 19 you have huge experience of owning lots of other cars? You've only owned it for less than a year, so realistically you're not going to have a huge amount of long term experience. No offence meant, but you youngsters do tend to have less real life experience than a lot of people.

[@DazeeRR]

Whoah, talk about skipping conclusions. Yes. May have owned it for 1 year, but do you happen to know how may miles i cover? Because ultimately that is what causes mechanical issues. Also at what point did i say i have "Huge experience owning lots of other cars"? Im finding it quite difficult to figure out what it is you're trying to get at with this comment^.

Chocolate pistons and gearboxes

[@MyJarrus]

miss the old intro sound

[@kingofiron257]

I see hate comments about this car? Why? Yes, its been a while I have seen a Corsa video or talked about this car but I didn't know there would so much negativity about it.. :/

[@Joseph.92]

kingofiron257 because if you aint got a ford your not good enough the car scene should respect peoples cars seems that ford is the way forward now haha 🤣

[@djkbrown]

Really good gearboxes and pistons 😂

[@tobyforeman7891]

Take care of them like any other car and they will be fine. Had my vxr 3 years now, stage 1, gearbox and pistons fine. Just need to upgrade the injectors when you map it. Awesome car, love it.

[@youtubedork9564]

Had my vxr 2 years and still makes me smile. Love it’s power and smokes 335 BMW’s lol

[@Benji5PoT]

Colin Coleman twat xD

[@ExRLynx]

[@Bratsoni]

[@WILLZVIDS]

[@Joseph.92]

Sick Will ep3 most boring and even more chavvy than a vxr lmao when i drove one just sounded like a loud fart drove me bloody mad 😣😆

[@segweglegpeg3857]

Hahahahaha gets you to mcdonalds car park quicker

[@Rookiereece]

Some Twat drove past me in one of these and let an almighty bang out of the exhaust just because I was in an ST

[@cobro2626]

As much as I hate stigma... I have to say the car really does speak for itself when it comes to faults and horror stories. As far as better cars are concerned it’s your preference but I wouldn’t invest money into another Vauxhall so long as I live. Everything about them is cheap. And it seems like everyone who owns them seem to defend the flaws to death until they get into another car... good review but terrible car.

[@theracingedge8539]

190bhp out the box...

[@danw8956]

would rather guide my dad in my mum than have a corsa

[@Joseph.92]

[@mcspooney]

[@tomnorris6469]

Don't forget the paper mache gearbox.

[@s1krryo626]

Tom Norris m32 gearbox,s or what I call em. M jelly box.

[@tomnorris6469]

TANDEM boii the reason I didn't get the astra vxr....

[@tommcmahon14]

the Mk6 fiesta ST that the ford fuck boys should be relating to the Corsa vxr instead of the new 2013+ shape fiesta was a 2.0l naturally aspirated pushing 150 hp. It was also very front end heavy. both the Corsa and fiesta of the same era are good cars but people need to stop relating to an almost 10 year old car to a 4 year old one.

[@craigosullivan80]

Mk5 Golf GTi is better!

[@Joseph.92]

Craig O'Sullivan mk5 gti cmon boringggg

[@coolmaan507]

vxr, leon or golf?

[@matthewellis9885]

Golf any day of the week

[@mcspooney]

my mother had a mapped vxr ''neverbin'' in white. I drove it and was annoyed at how hard the seats where, how bad the driving position was, how cheap it felt and by how the fact any one including her can call it a good handling car? there firkin scrap, period!

[@jesusloveyou9523]

whats up with them ugly yellow lights

[@lMX14l]

Corsa VXR, for when you have to get to McDonald’s drive through as quick as possible

[@s1krryo626]

[@cjbdntdis]

Also I got it because I feel like a idiot while attracting 17 year olds in Mc Donald's!

[@michaeladgo]

Anyone just not like Vauxhall? Cheap shiny council spec cars

[@boostedchris6120]

Same as fiesta st’s mk7 and fiesta ecoboosts just shouts chav

[@wazmru]

Regardless if the maintaince it had, piston will give up in the end. The block is just known to be a shame for GM. Also that horrible m32 box, always goes wrong. Throwing all that money to fix it will actually be better off buying a better car in its category. But to all the people saying this is better than a 1.8T VAG engine...Simply, NO WAY. 1.8t are known reliable and endless tuning possibilities.

[@MillerRice24]

W Racer you daft? The block are actually very strong and good, its the pistons and rods and once you forge them these will take 400bhp without any drama, that being said its too much for a FWD without sticky tyres and aero which is why most idiots can't drive and need a lot of power to cover up their lack of skills but a dated 1.8T 20V, they're shit! Unless they have a proper K04 such as an 064 they produce poor figures, struggle to hold boost, vacuum pipes fail and unless its an LCR they look dog shit I.E. Golf Mk4, A3/S3 8L, Octavia they're all so dated and wank! Mate you haven't a clue about 1.8Ts and trust me I do I work for one of the biggest VAG tuners in the UK, they're shit.

[@Lucas-rt5jb]

Opel

[@abath3493]

I'll have a Mini Cooper S or JCW

[@Joseph.92]

Harry Page well you can come round and cut my hair bro 👌

[@abath3493]

envy you25, have you ever driven one or been in one ?

[@Joseph.92]

Harry Page yeah just dont understand why so many ppl slate this little hot hatch its the younger people that give hot hatches a bad name financed out the roof and cant even afford insurance dammm what wrong with car scene

[@abath3493]

envy you25 I'm not slating it, I'd just rather have a Mini. Having had experience with both the Mini is far superior, hence why I own a 2006 JCW, my dad owns a 2017 JCW and my mom a 2007 Cooper S. They look better, they perform better, handle better, sound better and are just more upmarket, after knowing several people who have owned Corsa VXR's, many have swapped them for a Fiesta ST or a Mini, for good reason. None of our Mini's are financed, also look at the residuals of the Corsa VXR, they lose so much value.

[@Joseph.92]

Harry Page yeah i get what your saying i love all cars pal just think vauxhall get shit loads of stick
