thats true nic,but how fast can a 1.6 16v go.the blokes got no cash.so the topic is generally not worth starting.
im sure even your car has had problem with other motor's before,probly not ones you see everyday but still. and from my view of reading this thread hes gonna stuff it before the mods are done.

common misconception, where it matters a 106 is no stronger or weaker then a corsa b, both scored the same NCAP crash testing scores iirc
remember that video where they had ferraris and all sorts and they thought the 106 was one of the best handling cars

yes, or a puma 
having owned both i would say they handle very similar, maybe the 106 very slightly better

agreed
and btw i fitted a powerbox to my car and a janspeed 4-2-1 with a sportex system and matching decat
and i managed to pass a gti and he never managed to get past me that was over 7 miles of straights and twistys
Unless the GTI was either being a girl or whatever, i highly doubt you stayed infront of them for 7 miles, plus he would've rinsed you into next week in the bends
