yeah i thought that too.... until I helped fit V6 calipers and braided hoses to a 1.6 Sport recently. Pedal travel is only slightly increased and stopping power is greatly increased.

i dont disagree with people that have bodykits but personally after seeing the amount of maintenance they need i see no real point at a show im more interested in sleepers than bodykitted motors. LuckyB's old corsa was a legend in my books

They'd know as soon as he reached the top of a hill!

Actually 1.1 106's are quite nippy as they weigh nothing!
