[andyp]

Hi everyone

ordered a new 1.6 200ps gtc two weeks ago, should have it by end june, emerald green and parking sensors, standard other than that ,allmost 20 years to the day after buying my mk5 astra sport, that was emerald green as well, kept that for about 10 years, other Vauxhalls which have been in my life, 2 sri caverliers, sri corsa b,sxi corsa c, sxi corsa d ( still got that ).
 
any feedback on my new gtc would be welcome, have read lots of magazine tests but real owner views would be nice.

thanks

andy

Welcome, love the GTC shape...one of the best looking cars on the road imo. I had the 1.6T (180 BHP) prior to the VXR and as previously said above, they are great to drive.

The 180 BHP served me well for 18 months but I found all the power was above 3,000 RPM. They have improved this a lot with the new engine that's in yours so you'll love it.

Get some pics on here when you can. A lot of knowledge on here and a friendly bunch.
