Corsa, i have driven both (well my corsa is on spax but thats insignificant) the ka may have better std suspension but its a lot worse than uprated suspension on a corsa, i was takin roundabouts at 50-60 on saturday on the way back from bluewater, i was told i was on three wheels at one point! which was fun!

"IN" roundabouts!

Are you driving across them or something?

Ka.
All that extra unsprung weight of the 17's on the Corsa aint gonna help an already heavy car and it'll get punctures all round when you it hits the kerbs with those low profile tyres.

Nice high profile tyres are what you need to be "in" roundabouts.
