197 Cup - Grip. Internal organ shifting amounts of grip. More grip than
anything ever. Awesome sound, 100-0 in just sub 4 seconds - the brakes
were epic (big Brembos all round). Great engine that just begged to be
****ted. Good gearbox. Didn't check for cup holders, dash in the Cup
isn't soft touch like the full fat - didn't care.

Corsa VXR - less grip, but still loads of it, slightly more roll,
fantastic engine (1.6 Turbo) with loads of torque. Felt somehow a little
slower than the 197. Styling a bit OTT for me - but the blue is nice.
Interior is seats, standard fit Recaros are brilliant. Bluetooth phone
syncing thing is the best gadget ever. Ride a bit bouncy and skittish but
it was wearing 225/35/18 tyres. Again, awesome sound.

Conclusion - preferred the Clio, felt more stable. Corsa more tunable,
but a bit crass looks wise.
