I was going to ask how they compare to drive but it doesn't seem like you drive them?! I love the look on the Clio.

Both look good, especially the Astra. How come you don't see more Astra's on here?

I remember when the first Astra vxr first came out, they were everywhere.

Most of them ended up on their roof in North West Germany...

OP, nice cars but FFS drive them!

Its not as though they are classics/collectable/rare.
They are good hot hatches that need to be ragged and driven hard especially the Clio.

My advice, for what its worth, sell the Astra and buy a proper classic that you can detail and keep immaculate to your hearts content.

Then use the Clio.

I empathise.
You love cars, especially a good performance version (clearly)
But you want to look after them, allow them to be the best they can be.
I wash and wax mine all the time.
But I live in the countryside and if it's not wet and muddy, it's dry, dusty and pollen heavy.... but when I get to drive it, I can't help but fully enjoy it.... which naturally means a long period of cleaning follows...
It's just a case of finding the right reason and destination to drive it.
Get stuck in, those two look two good to sit still thumbup

I also got a daily/winter hack.... I avoided the temptation of 'another' performance car and got a diesel-mini-mpv-eco-euro-box....and whilst I give it some attention so it doesn't let me down... I really don't 'care' about it at all. This pairing seems to work smile
