| 15 page Group Test featuring our Stage 3 Astra VXR: "This car is all about one thing - torque, and buckets of it...... the brakes are awesome." "....Courtenay have really improved on what is essentially a good hot hatch now. Furious, fast, wild, potent and practical. And the speed it comes on boost, and stops, is outstanding. Solid, wicked hot hatch."

March - Performance Tuner Silver Screamer - Courtenay Supercharged 2.2 16v Astra G SRi - Owner: Mark Watts Quote: "2.2 SRi (referring to Astra G) was never a legend in the world of performance cars but Courtenay's supercharger conversion with chassis mods makes it a belter; looks are understated too," Quote: "Mark's SRi is very different, very capable and very quck.

VX220 Turbo: "A Courtenay chargecooler and engine management setup delivers a whacking punch and was felt as soon as I headed out onto the circuit during the out lap. I knew this was going to be quick. ....it reaches over 130mph which is very impressive along our main straight - there's not many track day stars that get over that figure. Because it was running standard suspension, the set of Courtenay 288mm grooved discs had me working hard on the brakes. If I did get it wrong on the entry the chasis was flexible enough to get it back while the huge lowdown torque figure had me very relaxed and composed." Quick Comment....... "Devastatingly quick in a straight line. The brakes are tops...." referring to our Stage 2 240bhp VX220 Turbo.
