Opel Corsa OPC test drive since 2007 hatchback

Charged dwarfs

It is absolutely not important what to consider: Renault Clio Sport or a turbo shack led by Mini Cooper S, Opel Corsa OPC and VW Polo GTI. Everyone is united by the same motto a small case, but a powerful core, coupled with maximum pleasure from driving
    
Candidates are impressive with a torque of 7,000 revolutions and to Redlin. But not everyone copes with such power competently. Who is the best?
Only at high speeds Renault begins to wake up
 
Namely, only after 5,000 revolutions. Not a very successful option for urban conditions, because only outside the city Renault shows its real opportunities. If in the city the car behaves simply quickly and even sometimes reactively, then in nature it turns into real euphoria. After 5.500 revolutions reached and 215 Nm, Renault reaches a hormonal explosion! But that's not all. We were very pleased with the control in turning, which is usually not the best for representatives of Renault. You can say little good about the checkpoint of the checkpoint, which resembles more a crookedly attached brick Lego.
Mini turbodemon
 
The true winner is hiding under the hood of the Mini car. The aggregate receives the title of engine of the year. The motors of the remaining candidates also behave with dignity, but mini is just a fairy tale. Let us throw the insides and return to the cabin: a chic leather finish made in the retro style, what else does a person need for complete happiness? And, of course, an unforgettable sensation that can only be able to do behind the wheel of a miniature Englishman in all British traditions.
A little about the rest
 
The rest impressed less, but also worthy of respect. It is only worth saying that the plus of Opel is a sophisticated package of devices, which is included in the basic configuration. With its jump into the future Opel is the exact opposite of the Mini concept. Well, the VW Polo GTI Cup Edition once again recalled what real German quality is, and most importantly the ratio of price and quality. Only 23.275 euros stands in Europe this German athlete. In general, all tested candidates are good, but the choice, as always, is already for the buyer.
