Are these reliable? And what is the insurance like on them?
They look quite nice and are cheap. Much cheaper than my choice number 2 RX8 (Mazda).
Selling the 106 in July !

Same floorpan as corsa B, nice styling when modded, same handling as corsa, same engine, gearbox, interior etc. Wait for the new Tigra in 2004 and wait for used car prices to drop.

Group 10 insurance. Bugger!!! Have to get some quotes before i decide. 1998 S Reg about 4k. That's in my price range once i've sold the 106.
Thanks for that link mate. Been buying mags every month, well expensive!

0 - 60?
106 does a top speed of 90, blows up when you do 55 in 2nd and takes about 10 years to get to 60

Tigra 1.6 has a higher top end speed over corsa due to its better aerodynamics.
