well besides the higher insurance group im happy with the 1.6, as i said im only 18 and all my mates drive either 1.0 or 1.2's! my main concern was that is would be a nicer drive than my corsa and more reliable, which i have no doubt about now!

cos there are fair better cars out there

Why rush into buying a nearky new car to lose loads of money on when you could buy something better

Just my opinion - thats what I did. If your happy fair play just enjoy driving it

Nothing better than driving around in your own car that you love driving
