Every time I pin a comment. UA-cam seems to delete it. Well annoying. Let’s see if this one gets deleted 👀
Calvin's Car Diary how much u selling them for?
Ting Tong all my cars are for sale here 👉 www.binca.co.uk
Get a Astra vxr or gsi on next 🤞🏻
U will have to let us know if u do get a speeding ticket .
Calvin i like the fact that you said you like to keep the channel mostly based on affordable cars. This is something we needed within the car enthusiast side of youtube!
You hit the nail on the head. Its not all about the £20k+ cars, the bargain pocket rockets are just as much fun. Keep up the good work and smashing out the videos 👊🏾
I can’t believe this I’ve been looking at that blue vxr on binca for ages, when I first started watching the video I recognised the Reg straight away!! Never knew Calvin was involved. So cool 👍🏼
Calvin I watched the first VXR you posted and went out to buy one for myself which I've own since Feb 2017. These cars are a lot of fun the over-boost function still gives me an adrenaline shot. best advice is to get forged pistons coz they melt(P4). Glad I saw your video back then I have no regret buying a Corsa OPC as we call em in South Africa. Keep em vids rolling.
Great video again Calvin. Love the variety of hot hatches on your channel. From a few grand, to the high end stuff 👌
Calvin I do love your video's and you can see how much you were enjoying giving that VXR a blast. You come across really well and you actually give 2nd hand car dealers a good name
Great video Calvin, I own one of these and love it. I also discovered your channel by watching the original red corsa vxr video.
Calvin's a legend man tells it how it is keep up the good work bro love the content
These cars seem to be Lots of fun !! Small pocket rocket 🚗 🚀 … great content as always Calvin 👍 Keep it coming #ONIT
itsam9ting yeh for about 15k and they melt 😂
Anything 300bhp+ is rarely useable on the roads nowadays, they're too congested,you will only appreciate a real high power machine in the early hours when the roads are dead,plus these type of cars you can drive to the limit which makes it more fun
Love the improved production quality!
I swear you’re the funniest character on UA-cam atm that intro had me 😂
Its not headgasket issues on the corsa VXR's. Its the 4th piston that melts, lots of speculation on what causes it. Had it happen to mine too
mine had it too, probably running too lean on cilinder 4 because of a design error on the fuel rail
It’s when they get smashed about with low fuel. Because cylinder 4 is the furthest away it doesn’t get enough and melts it’s self
So if u have a full tank all the time your good ?
Jake Smith no that’s what people say😂, just warm it up and cool it down and don’t rag it all the time and you’ll be fine.
jones stfu 😂
Been following u for at least one year now humble guy sick channel love the collabs with man like Ricky too keep it coming bro
Finally found a good video reviewing a Corsa VXR! Great video!
VXRS would be absolute machines if it weren't for piston four and if the gear box was a little stronger they would be on the top spot for hot hatches i think. Very fun little cars.
My current history: Toyota Aygo at 17 (Cheap to run) Volkswagen Golf GT Sport TDI (Nice upgrade after 4.5 years of the 1.0 Aygo, 2.0 TDI but had too many problems being a Mk5, next had a Vauxhall Corsa SRI 1.4 (nice, reliable but wanted more power.
Upgraded in March to Corsa vxr. Hands down best car I've ever owned! For the price cannot beat them. Paid £4695 for 2010 with 87,000 stock car. So far good as gold not seen any issues, quick, parts reasonable cheap if something did go wrong, and lots of fun cannot get anything near the experience and power around that price with comparable year and specs
Temp Gauge: On your wiper stalk, press the button on the end 4 times and hold it on the 4th press. Wait 10secs till your mileage changes. Press the button a further 5 times and theres your temperature.
Does it show on LE’s too?
@@DomWayne if you have the trip computer coupled with button on the end of the wiper stalk I don't see any reason why it shouldn't... I've never owned an LE so couldn't say, but I have had an SRI and VXR and they work on both of them anyway.
FYI You can also press the mileage reset button in the same sequence as explained above, it does the same as the end of the stalk but it's easier to press the stalk.
It does work on the LE too i can confirm as ive had both 😀
Spot on a real talk as per usual Calv. Always look forward to having a notification saying there is a new video to watch. Big ups 👊
Dj Ed G I love how positive every single one of your comments is. #ONIT
@@CalvinsCarDiary cheers mate. Your positivity has inspired me to make my business and personal life bigger and stronger. My #onit hoody reminds me of this and it is such a positive vibe that my 7 year daughter picks up on it. Come on dad be onit today ❤
That was one of the best, funniest intros ever lol 🤣 wheels off the ground!! ...I mean nah nah...cant say that...course not
Never seen your videos before enjoyed this one now subscribed
There’s a way of bringing up the temperature, and normally just a bad temperature sensor that causing it to run hotter than it should. Cheap part, cheap fix, gear box on the other hand is a difference story.
Nice little cars, fun for not a lot of money. Good video again👍🏻
Nice to see cars like this on the channel. Would be interesting to see your thoughts on an R56 Mini Cooper S or JCW
Good video man 🤙
Who wouldn’t buy a car of you you seem like a decent chap to buy a car off especially after watching the court case video people if you haven’t watched that video then go watch it Calvin is on it cheers Calvin great video.
Pe Ter good to see you in the comments as always mate. Cheers 👊🏼
What court case mate?
Good little review bro. Like these normal car reviews
Had one for my previous car with a cone filter on it miss the little go kart & the sound😭😭
They are very nice cars them Corsa VXR's, Them 2 colours next to each other looked so good too :D
I’ve got two Vxr’s both blue one 2007 and the other is a 2014!
Yeah is fucked it
Head gaskets aren’t any issue on these, and they don’t overheat.
The issues are the piston 4 known issue, and the M32 Chocolate gearbox. Get a lot of bad rap but piston 4 tends to only go on remapped cars done by questionable places.
Was that a speed camera in the intro clip? :0
15 year old girlfriend and McDonald's. Corsa life bro
interceptor1986 thats a fiesta job now its all about the eco boost
KandRgaming Productionz the “it’s basically an ST” crew 😂
@Bob Pegram how's the happy meal??
@Bob Pegram well its obviously got you butt hurt. Calm down princess we all started with Corsas realised they were shit and moved on.
@Bob Pegram 😂😂
Calvin don’t know if you get many in or not but doing vids on other than just cars like sport vans or high end 4x4 etc be very interesting to watch as myself love vans as I own a Transit Custom would love to see vids on vans btw WAY prefer to watch Transits than any other vans also loving the vids man cant stop watching them keep it up
Calvin I recently I bought a corsa vxr and I was thinking of getting it mapped I’m just wanting to know between the 2 corsas you droves on your channel the mapped one and
the standard one was there a big difference in power do you think it’s worth doing or am I better keeping it standard? Any information/advice would be appreciated
You could go so many ways with this channel its crazy like kudos brother
Going for the fast & furious gear change cam....... :p
The blue vxr, love it
Not a Vauxhall fan myself but you sold these little cars well
I know my youngest son wants to upgrade his corsa to a vxr version
Older son is a st/rs fan although they only move off the drive once a month
Great vid👍
A car with a dsg box is gonna be a fair few quid more ,
These are cheap and cheerful
I’ve been looking at buying one
You seem to get a lot of motor for ya money 👍🏼
Would u be intrested in buying a vw corrado vr6 storm
What a superb channel such great content well done sir.i had an astra vxr loved it but now drive an m135i
matthew roberts 🔥
smooth and short gearbox is much fun
Calvin, Please try a different filter on your camera, it really fecks with the paint colours!! 👍
Yeah I didn't realise his golf r was lapiz blue for about 3 months ahah!
he does it on purpose, he knows it shows a different colour, he mentions it on one of his lotus videos
Yea for some strange reason I like it. I know what you mean tho. When I start disliking it I’ll probably change it. Thanks for the feedback 👌👊🏼
Calvin's Car Diary yeah, I knew that you knew about it and that it was intentional but just thought it was worth another mention👍, interestingly the golf R at the start appears in the correct lapiz shade, unlike AR51HOL usually does, different camera?
CarlosFandango it’s post film editing that makes the colours look different I think bud. He adds a colour correction to change the colours. I don’t think it’s a filter on a camera or a particular camera.
You should do a review on a mk6 astra vxr 280 BHP when one comes in and come pair it to the corsa vxr and mk5 astra vxr
U went flying passed speed cam enjoy that fine 😂
Daniel Jones I was thinking the same thing? No fucks given for the cameras 🤪🤣 that log books not going in his name now 😂🤣👌🏽
For sure hahaha
i thought camera's only work if theres lines on the road or only flash if you go the opposite direction so it is able to take a picture of the rear yellow plates?
No that was a front facing cam that takes pick of driver and number plate has red filter on it
Camera's don't work here in the UK. There's a very small percentage that do. Fly past a camera over 100mph on a 40 and they still don't flash.
You looked like you went past that speed camera fast at the start 😯
front facing so it cant flash
@@HarryG98 only the old film speed cameras can get you one way the newer ones use radar to catch you and can catch you going both ways
Nice cars and the year on it it looks mint
hi calvin how does it compare the your ep3? thanks.
ayy! stoke hammond. so close to where i live!!
Looked to be motoring through that speed camera 😢
Love the Corsa VXR's. Pocket rockets. :)
Never seem to last very long tho
another great video used to have a astra sri - capri 2.0 s o and a opel manta gte all top fun cars got mr2 mk3 roadster now carnt beat the old school cars there more fun !
I got a 1.4 sxi for my first car and it feels like a golf cart so easy to handle
Love the corsa D it’s the nicest looking model they’ve ever made
like i said before you should be on top gear . you tell it like it is . love your chanell
I was looking at a nurburgring to replace my 1.4 SRi but with the chocolate piston 4, i'm going to grab a GT86 instead
P4 is due to injectors just put astra vxr injectors in and you're fine
good video, like you said bringing it back to cars that are affordable. how much are you selling these for?

"A lotta pheasants around here - he's not in a rush" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hey man, looking to get some exhaust modifications for my Limited Edition 2016 1.4 Corsa. Was wondering what you would suggest, just looking for something to put a smile on my face when driving it.
Just bought one of them are they any good. What’s your opinion
You got that wheeling bro vxr on back wheels go on den
Do a review on the corsa E vxr see if you think there's a difference.
haha mental that! first ever vid i watched of yours was the day you released the old vxr vid. then a couple of weeks later discovered your old ep3 type r video and bought one of them instead. now looking to buy a mazda 3 mps. would love to see a vid on one of them if you can!
Nearly bought Mazda 3 mps on a couple of occasions. Gearboxes are horrible and they'll eat tyres faster than they drink petrol. Definitely quick and fun though.
bloody brilliant ;)
Love the vxrs I have a Vectra vxr and I love it ;)
Just bought a Nurburgring edition a month ago, love the car honestly! Drove a normal corsa VXR and wasn’t that impressed but the Nurburgring was during felt much tighter and I bought it there and then!😂
What number I have number 339
niigel spinks mine doesn’t have the number on the dash or anything 😩 so not sure
Corsa burgs wasn't numbered from factory I think they only made 500 but owners on the vxronline done something so you could get it numbered seen something on the forum about it a while back
Corsa VXRs aren't bad cars, but I've driven a few and I'm not their biggest fan. It also doesn't help like I a fast Ford 😂As always Calvin, cool video 👍
Try a face lift 208 gti I own one I love it even got heated seats led pan roof satnav good car
I have the 208 gti by Peugeot Sport love the car
Just watched this in zante 😎
I've got a vxr they don't like being killed with low petrol lov your content tho
I have just bought the red corsa from somebody and love it
be aware of piston 4 issues and the m32 chocolate gearboxes issues
I always wanted one for the looks...but the performance was slower than 6.8! My clio 182 kicked arse....compared....thats all!
Fuck sake I have a 182 and wanted to buy a corsa vxr but I'll change my mind now 😂
I'd want one but that chocolate gearbox really puts me off. I've a strong left arm and have messed up my 1.8 Corsa C gear linkage twice now.
I wanna know how much u paid for them and how much your selling them for..
Think the mirrors came from a noble m600 dude , supercar mirrors on a hot hatch 👌👍
Other way round mate
I’m surprised Calvin wasn’t in a rush ...
Get a fiesta st on the channel please, its one you have never done
what is the difference between the 2 exhaust Corsa vxr from the triangle Corsa vxr exhaust and what's better to buy
Twin exhaust tips for a corsa vxr will only be on a Nurburgring or club sport from factory with a bit extra power. Triangle style is just a design for the diffuser with a small triangle tip behind it, it’s totally up to yourself as both have the same issues with reliability unless it’s well looked after or forged
Does anyone else see the speed camera? 3 seconds in 😂
Owen Radcliffe most box ones don’t work
Owen Radcliffe 🚗💨📸
Man like Clavin, 2 Fast No Catch 😂
@@CAR_SOLUTIONS they do in Lincolnshire 🤣🤣😭😭
@@interceptor-ss8kb 😂 in Birmingham they've put up little digital ones on lamposts behind trees 😂 hard to spot
I had Corsa d sxi sri and black edition I'm vauxhall nut but there dog slow. The polos far superior fast with only 3 cylinder engines couldn't belive how good it was. Corsa vxr needs 1.6 turbo get it moving
Speed camera at the start of the video ??
The gear boxes are also known for being unreliable too. Which is a shame.
Speed camera at the start? 🤣🤣
It needs a temp gauge. That's why I would never own one. Good one GM!
they come with a temp guage
The old mikey bar son the blue car and the red car had a race
Im thinking of upgrading from my SRI to a VXR but im unsure, had alot of problems with my SRI..gutted as i do love my corsa sri just costing me alot of money :/
Bro did you not see that speed camera 😂
Bloody this bloody that 😉😂
How much are you selling the blue one
I've had an arden blue corsa that I loved and do miss, but I've got an astra vxr nurburgring now which I love even more lol
Idk why but your voice sounds like the slang 101 guy 🤣😂
My Corsa D over heated and warped the head. Never again!
I tuned mine to 338bhp, and yes engine melted,weep .
Doing a video on the Porsche?
I had a Corsa GSI back in the day, also had a gasket probem and the engine needed a rebuild. Cost me a fortune to get it repaired. Vauxhall washed their hands of it after losing my full service history. I found out that Tigra's had the same issues. You would have thought that Vauxhall would have sorted the issues for following ranges. Obviously do not give a toss about their customers. Swore I will never touch another Vauxhall again. Hopefully other victims of Vauxhall have not bothered with the brand again .Look forward to the day that Vauxhall announce they have gone bust.
Is that a NAF NAF coat ?
Vauxhall is so underrated in general I’d say, sure there are the jokes about McDonald’s drive thru and young girls being picked up by them but for real they’re decent cars.. got one on my channel a yellow GTC 👀😂 @Calvin hit me up mate 😉😂
Shaan Alam decent motor mate
Shaan Alam haha great selling technique.. thank god you got rid of that splitter though
Astra vxr's are a world away from a shitty corsa vxr, personally prefer astra h vxr but the gtc is good too and handles better than the h
woody555kl I agree mate 110%
Booo 😂 Astra Vxr’s ain’t that bad mines alright check out the progress on mine 😜
Just being Hayden mine shat a gearbox lol
Try to get the new shape vxr
