    interesting watch lads, but most of all good to see you pressing it when its safe to do so, too many clowns on youtube that take cars down the back roads, overtaking others on blind corners, just putting everyone at risk when a family of kids could be around the corner so dont be those guys, have fun but safe, kick it when its clear to do so and dont do anything daft so you stay alive and keep others alive, only need to do one daft overtake on a blind bend and it might be the day your faces are part of an arctics grill or you have kids dead bodies on ya hands. stay safe, make cool video's! cheers.

    Corsa looks fun/quick! I would say buy bigger turbos though, keep what you have (if you know they're good and you've looked after them), unless you're genuinely bored of the cars. It's nice to try different cars of course, but sometimes it's not always the best decision moving on to another car that may not actually be as fun as the last. Also more satisfaction beating high end cars, with relatively cheap, tuned hot hatches!
