im genuinly scared of falling out and also the radio is far down infront if the gear stick you have to reach to press anything so will probably cause an accident

I absoulutly love them with a passion, would reccomend a minter to anyone and thats the problem, minters are getting alot rarer, the shape of them i think are lovely and in it's time, still possibly now one of the best looking standard hatches!!
Had a 1.4 xs myself (as you can see in my garage) lol
And when i can afford to insure one, will try find a minter of a 1.9!!

Fantastic cars, test drove a MI 16v one a couple of months b4 I got the corsa, the lad only wanted £1.5k for it, I would have bought it if the money matters worked out, just as fast as my corsa aswell.
