inform the DVLA, doesnt cost anything. Sell the 1.4 engine etc, ring adrian flux and other decent insurers and get the 2litre on the road then gte it MOT'd as a 2litre.

Your a wanker 
You insurance is void, this means your an uninsured driver. If you crashed into me i would get no money from your insurance company.

Where did he mention it was his 2.0 corsa that got hit.... oh yeah it never!
he could have easily been driving a fully taxed, mot'd and insured 1.0 12volt.

Well yeah, is that not the whole point of insurance groups?
To stop young, inexperienced drivers killing themselves and other innocent people 
At 18, with a 2L you'll probably be quoted at least £1500, if not £2000+
