Corsa VXR 888 competition

ford still cover the warranty on the mountune fiesta st185, so if Wads-this corsa is allowed, then the fiesta should.
as far as i know, the only time vauxhall will honour its warranty is with mods by the vxrpc? not 888? may be wrong.

I'm considering buying this car,some people have a problem that the VXR comes as standerd factory tuned.i think offering a car thats ready to run on the track from the box is not only good,its a alot better on your pocket aswell.Vauxhall have gone to a new level.and to say they have only just started mass producing "sport" models,they havent done all that bad!

to behonest lads ive just ordered the pack and know it will blow all comers inc your snob chariots.

The extra power is offered by the Vauxhall owned 888 Performance Centre and as far as I can tell Vauxhall still cover the warranty. To me this isn't much different to an AMG "tuned" Merc..... however the Ford Fiesta ST185 I also added IS tuned (I hadn't fully read the review where I found the laptime until now) so I'll delete it and the Cadwell Park lap time.

I was under the impression that the remap and exhaust were optional extras available when ordering the car rather than after market tuning..... if option I'd argue this is just a different version (like the various Clio versions).
If thats not true I'm happy to have it deleted (I only added it because of the EVO group test and new Cadwell Park lap time).
