Mazda RX7 Vs Vauxhall Corsa

Okay here\'s the final installment with special attention paid to points people have raised.

While the gear box is not as nice and tight as on the rex, it isn\'t too bad. The gates do feel a mile apart, but you\'re not there stirring away trying to find a gear at the lights.

Speaking of lights it was okay off of them...as long as the car next to you doesn\'t go over 30.

Steering was okay, not a huge amount of feedback, but accurate and light due to power steering (either that or I\'m stronger than I thought)

Anyway had to return it to the hire company with half a tank and by crikey I had  used a 1/4 of a tank and it only took £10 to fill it up: WICKED!!!

However on my final jaunt back to Guildford along the A31 in it I made a Porsche (full fat 911 not a boxster) get out of my way!!! I think he was turning off though rather than worried about the awesome pace I was displaying

So what have I learnt from this? That I can probably never, ever go back to a car other than a rex. Or maybe a Porsche, we\'ll have to see if I get a pay rise for that though
