Pog GTI could have some competition.

Re-sale Value, compared to the Polo the Ford and Holdens will massively take a plunge, most likely a lot of mechanical/computer issues such as direct injection malfunction, tyre pressure indicator faults, oil temp gauge faults.

Personally your safer with a Volkswagen then a Rubbish dump or petrol guzzling lion.

Just another update.

HSV are looking at the possiblity of a HSV Cruze using the Opel Astra OPC engine and another variant which would run a twin turbo setup.

Hopefully Opel brings their full range of hot hatches to Oz when they start distributing here next yr. I'd take one of those over the HSV Cruze thingy.

Opel start distributing here next yr......

interesting......

i'd never get an HSV cruze- has anyone actually seen one on the road?

"the small car just got serious" my ass- they're ****ing huge!!!!! externally, they dont look much smaller than a VE commodore, when seen side by side....

the opel corsa OPC would be nice, though..... and the opel insignia wagon looks pretty damn sweet.
