    So, £10,000 all in all.

    Well... suppose if you wanted to blow all your cash at once, that is one way to do it.

    Although I would suggest something better like the new Civic?, Punto?

    Don't like either.

    The second options would have been a Peugeot 206.

    I'm not paying it in one hit. I'm paying for it over 4 years.

    If you get caught though , you can kiss goodbye to your licence!

    Actually the redtop engine is from the Astra.

    2.0 in a car with very little weight is mental!

    It's not about the car it's the engine and it's a very good one.

    Most people who have Corsa's get a 2.0 engine from them put into there Corsa.

    = Mental speeds.

    My mate has the old old Corsa shape with a 2.0 engine in from a Cavaliar and it's the fastest 1.2 around!

    I bought a Nova with a red top engine years back (my 2nd car), But yeah excellent fun and very very fast.

    Lightweight cars are the way forward.
