...1.0i 12v Corsas can you give me your advice please. Looking through mags etc, it looks like a good car for me to get. It's not as fast as my 106 but i'm sure that it can't be as shit. Gonna take my car along to a few garages next week to see what i can get for the bag of shite.

At least a 1.2 16v then. Can't be that much more to insure.

1.2 16v minimum - trust me mate, otherwise you'd kick yourself ...
ideally a cheap 1.4 16v would be best for someone your age - but at least a 1.2 16v won't leave you miles behind everyone on convoys and stuff.

There can't be much in 5 BHP between the 1.1i 106 and 1.0i Corsa can there. Gonna check it out with Tesco insurance tomorrow as it's you can't get quotes until 8 in the morning.

106 is a lot lighter, 106 will murder the corsa.

But the 106 is shit !!! I'll find out tomorrow with the insurance. I love the shape and style of the 106 and even the drive but mine just keeps fucking up. No way it has only done 37,000 miles and has a FPSH. Mind-you the Peugeot service history might be the problem, they couldn't even work out what was wrong with my car after telling them. Grabed a mec, sat him in the car and shouted at him and then showed him what was wrong with it. How the fuck they couldn't pick up that the car needed reving to keep it going i'll never know. THEY AINT GETTING ANYMORE BUSSINESS OFF ME OR MY MOTHER !!! They still haven't fixed the gearbox, i just give up, just haven't got the time
