   Stats of Corsa? 1.2 8 or 16 valve?
   Stats of Furio?
   
   Neither is a fast car IMHO!

   They have about the same bhp... but saxo has larger cc engine and less weight so I would say furio
   
   there not going to be a massive difference between the two tbh

   depends a standard un touched 1.4 saxo would loose but if it had saxperience stickers were onto a winner

    take it too parkers depends on what kind of condition the car is in tbh, badly serviced high milage furio against a low milage corsa would be a different story imo

    ?? are you all mad. 1.4 furios/ westcoasts are able to pull from 1.6 astras so the corsa relly is left behind.

    The furio would be probably just noticably quicker. But neither are fast.

    would a 1.1 stand any chance with a corsa 1.2 16 or 8 valve cause mine dont even fell like it was quicker than my old cbr 125

    the maths are there
    
    my furio has a fsh, a few mods, and it trances the trusty corsa, but the furio still isnt quick

    Corsa 1.2 16v are just over 1000kg.
    Furio's are 840kg.
    Should be a win for the saxo depending on age and condition

    its been tested! haha. i've got 2 mates, 1.2 16v corsa b and furio, both have subs and were 4s up, the sax had tools in the boot tho i think.... but yeh anyway the corsa raped the furio off the mark but once in 3rd gear it was a reversal and the sax cruised passed pretty easily.
    
    obviously could be down to driver error/ability + the sax had just over 100k on the clock whereas the corsa had more like 45k.
    
    so 1.4 sax all day?

    There really is no contest, Power to weight shows this, obviously other factors will impact the result.
    
    I've had a go with a Corsa 1.2 16v (on a private race track)
    
    Furio with a 1.1 gearbox was infront the whole way.
