The handling can be transformed easily with a whiteline RARB and a good set of coilovers or springs, it turns this car into a very quick, competitive and communicative machine

[@JedemPoKucama]

What is RARB?

[@tescooffical7175]

@@JedemPoKucama rear anti roll bar

[@darrenmicklewright2008]

I have both and yes number the 1 suspension mod is the rarb then coilovers make it that bit stiffer

5:08 - i came. Most beautiful starting sound of a 2.0l engine i know. Not too extreme, not loud, but deep, honest and grouchy!

The really thing good in this car... And this guy talk about the f doors on the opc....you are kidding jajaja

[@petervelentzas9564]

Detailed and very informative review, as for the handling comments some really experienced drivers find it as the joyful part of the car. Keep on the good job Jim.

[@StarsingerOG]

I am one of those people, the torque steer is really engaging for me, as for the understeer - always keep it in lower gear when on a downhill.

[@austinbrady4345]

The sound from the exhaust is so brutal

What are the problems with the handling?

[@JimmyVelentzas]

When you get in a corner there is understeer and If you lift off the gas there is oversteer. Plus when you accelerate there is torquesteer

[@sleeper207]

There is no problems with handling. This myth comes from TV motoring show Top Gear, witch we all used to love, off course, but it still was a SHOW, not a serious motoring programm. Any FWD car with 240hp and no differential will understeer. You just have to LEARN to drive it - disabilty to go faster in to the corner gives you ability to accelerate out of the corner earlier. It was the fastest hothach around the Nordschleife at the time - enough said. Any FWD car with no diff will give you torque steer, witch is good in a sports/sporty car, that gives you additional information straight from the wheels. And you should lift off accelerator and brake before the corner, never on the corner, in general, no matter what car and how you drive it.

[@darrenmicklewright2008]

1993! 93 Δεν είμαι ειδικός σε Opel ή σε οποιαδήποτε άλλη μάρκα , γενικά όμως νομίζω πως βγάζουν προβληματάκια αλλά όχι μεγάλης αξίας. Καλό θα ήταν να συμβουλευτείς κάποιο forum ή κάποιο συνεργείο Opel !

Big up. In 2 months i Will buy this car. Now i have this car astra gtc but with 1.6 engine. I need an upgrade.

[@JimmyVelentzas]

@@sosotzutzy well if the car that you currently have is the turbo version with 180 hp , I would say that 60 hp won't make tons of difference . But if you have the one with 115 hp well then the opc has double the horsepower of your current car and I can consider the upgrade as a "must do"

[@sosotzutzy]

I have 115 HP. I Will keep it also, beacuse it s a good car with low milage.

[@JimmyVelentzas]

By the way if you are looking for an opc you don't want it to have more than 60.000 . It's a car that people buy to enjoy and high mileage cars most times are on their last legs !
