IROC - Any news on if/when it will be produced?

Just dreaming about what you could have been able to afford, Andy, if you didn't have to pay so much more tax than I do?

 

Trevor, i've just had a pay rise, i now earn so much, that even paying the tax leaves with **** loads of money - you crazy welshman

 

Is this some sort of 'tax-off' !?

a la.......

 

i heard it mentioned in work its gonna have a 260 bhp 2.0 turbo lump available.

company car here i come

 

I've never seen anything like it!
...Oh wait

 

im with Jolfa on this one, i dont like it.

maybe to see one for real i might change my mind, but atm, the nicest thing on it is the alloys.

 

They released the concept design too early.
Seen that many other brands take design hints from it it's a bit too late now.

 

Engeland!


I prefer the original concept version. The `re-design` version looks gash!

 

bit alfa romeo/vauxhall but not too bad!

 

I'd still have it.

 

VW blinkers [] it's just another generic, characterless, bubblecar with a VW badge on it!

 

It looks like one of those kia birdseed things

And wtf is Scirocco about it? It's nothing like one

 

The "re-design" looks like a typical Auto Express Photoshop of an existing car, like say example the Astra, that they can then remodel themselves using the original concept car pictures as a guide.

looks much much better there than the white pics above.

still not gone to a great effort with the interior? generic golf / eos dash

it could also pass for a golf mk6 with a different badge!? I thought I'd be a bit more coupe-looking.

 

Boring!!

Same outline shape and shoulder height as 99% of new vehicles within the market sector.

 

To be fair, I think this pic looks awesome:

Not over enamoured by the rear end though

 

very similar

 

^^ Funnily enough i was just sitting here looking at it thinking "that rear end looks a bit Alfa 147 ish" As has been said, can't really see what's "Scirocco" about it

 

But hey, it'll be cool for a month until the rest of England have one

Astra/Alfatastic

 

Woo, yay, rock on ... another bland 'o matic bauble. Cant wait.
