Is it gay to own two corsa B's?
Thinking about swapping my Tigra for a 1.4/1.6 Sport.
To go along side my underpowerd 1.0 12v.
Thinking it will be boring owning two cars the same.
Even though the tigra is a corsa anyway!
Anyone else own two bubbles?

I used to own my Green 1.0 the same time I had my old LET Corsa and my old Black Sport, both the Turbo and the Sport where off the road and where both projects, the 1.0 was a great run about, never went wrong and was cheap to run.
Will you be insuring both cars yourself or your missus insured on one and you insured on the other?
If your insuring both yourself then you may aswell get rid of one, yes the 1.0 is cheap to run etc and the sport would cost more to run but you would still be paying out insurance on 2 cars so would defeat the point.

Thing is, it isn't cheaper. The money you spend taxing, MOTing and insuring a second car means you could just have a way better first car.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

I always had 2 cars, No need to worry about that. 1 car isnt practical.
Just dont know if i want two cars basically the same. Ideally id like something different but the price of a half decent 1.4 or 1.6 Sport is almost too tempting.
