Just bought a seven , obviously I love it .
It's the Vauxhall 1.6 8v , been fettled with some what to squeeze out 130bhp (suits me just fine)

Been a while since I had sumate that shifts , the last nice car I had was a tvr tamora and the two feel very similar , cept one is snug and does it's thing getting too 100mph the other roomy and doing it's thing from 60 to license striping.

Fact I can have the same fun lower down where it's safe and it a fraction of a cost is BEAUTIFUL.

only thing I do miss is the pop and bang from the exhaust.
I know the X flows ment to be great for this but that's not what I've got :-/
so is there any way to improve its vocal cords and add a bit of back fireing to the experience

Wow that's interesting. Apart from 2 seats and a bit of air, I can't think of how one of the worst handling sports cars can compare with one of the best!
