Do they still make the 1.6 SRi? the insurance was always really good on them
No they stopped doing them a couple years back.
Biggest petrol version you can get now without it being a vxr is the 1.4 100bhp.
You can actually get a 1.4 turbo these days, just not in the SRi.

Was behind a facelift d earlier that said turbo on the back. Didnt realise cars still had turbo stuck on them like its something special. Thought that stayed in the 90s

Don't think they come with it on, someone must have stuck it on from halfords

I seen a new Meriva the other day, think it was a 62 plate, and had a turbo badge on the rear, same as the 1 in that Ebay link.
Car looked like a basic spec model, no alloy wheels etc.
Turbo badge was in the same place as this....
