Giant SCR C2

Advantages: Sharp handling, adequate performance from the engine, innovative and sporty design
Disadvantages: Build quality

...After recently purchasing a C2 GT, I have decided to write my first review. To start off with, what exactly is the GT edition of the C2? The GT edition is the rally homologation developed and released only in 2004 by Citroen to enter the junior world rally championship and super 1600 rally class. It had an edition number of 2250 vehicles, 250 of these being made into rally cars and the other 2000 specifically being put onto British roads. The road version shares the 1.6i 16v engine out of its sister car the C2 VTR. From my personal experience this engine is frugal and provides enough power for my driving style.

Advantages: Great perfomance, variable heat, styles as well as straightens, funky looks
Disadvantages: Price might put some off, lack of high-street availability, cleaning the plates

...print Corioliss C2 Titanium straighteners from Sally's Beauty Supply. She said the straighteners were brilliant, variable temp, curls and waves too, antibacterial action, smooth design and function.

Advantages: huge play area
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Giants den Huge warehouse on the easily found Team Valley trading Estate, this has been opened a few years now, and is usually busy?one of those places to go to when it's raining and you need something to amuse the kids. The whole area is divided into sections for under 2s, which is basically ball pools and Little vehicles to drive in a specially enclosed area, an area for under 5s, which is more of the same but with some slides and climbing frames added, and then there is the real "I am" things. These include a giant slide 3 storey climbing frame, as many nets and tunnels as you can negotiate, basketball area (there are coaching nights), PS2 and x box areas complete with some of the latest games and a mini village with small road system. Definitely something for everything if nerves can take it!! PARTIES We have. Over... Read review
