VX220 certainly doesn't drive like shite, completely the opposite in fact... although that's arguably not really a Vauxhall at all (and rather academic since it's above your £4k budget)
Hence why i said id never driven one i like, always wondered what theyre like however way out of price range lol

Yeah the vx220 is an exception...
But a sri130... Really?!?!
A 206 hdi stg1 be quicker and more fun!
And all other vauxhalls are too expensive or just boring as hell...like the word "grey" comes to mind

Has Joe finished his Astra yet? I guess that drives pretty well lol? I don't usually like Vaux but I'll make an exception there.

No he hasnt joes one is f*cking mental. But then again its cost almost triple my budget i think.

Lol, yeah I know it wasn't cheap.

Vx220 is the engine that the lotus Elise should have had

Really? Ever driven one? They went suprisingly well back in the day and the lack of sports car handling just adds to the grin factor. They are willing enough to get you into a hedge hopping scenario, many ended that way!
My old Campain Gti was only 115bhp but it just wanted to be thrashed and thrown about. Probably the most fun car I've ever owned.
