Special car, quiet forum...why?

IIRC the modes simply changed the gearbox and throttle maps along with stiffening/softening of the suspension.

The main flaw with the AV was that you wanted the speed of the gearbox change with Corsa but with all the sound and drama of Sport, even with EGO mode you couldn't achieve this.

I could be wrong but I don't think the AVS was that technologically advanced that it could adjust the 4wd or rear steering angles, despite the introduction of 4WS on the S it was all based upon revamped old technology.

How is Sport more dramatic than Corsa? I thought Corsa is the most extreme setting

When I say drama, I mean all the exhaust pops and crackles that you get in sport between gear changes. Although Corsa has a more aggressive gear change, you lose all the exhaust dramatics with it.

Does anyone know how many AV Roadster S are registered in the UK? Someone mentioned that they are quite rare for a normal production version (i.e not SV or SVJ)
