this is what i am thinking aswel more reliable just the corsa is more of a sleeper and i think is faster but the engine isnt suppost to be in there so i could get alot of probs and dont really have the money to constantly fix it think ive just answered my own qs then

i'd buy the corsa, styled nice and with it being a 2litre it will be a sleeper, saxo's and chavvy AX's will try and race ya, and get seriously dissapointed
with the CRX they'd expect it

depends how u treat the car doesnt it? if u abuse both cars they will both have problems, not just the 2litre xe
too much chav chat these days
bit like the local pikey saying hes gettin a dump valve without a turbo unit on his engine or reading a post by an idiot, copying and pasting it on corsasport tis funnaaaaay

2litre has got alot more torque aswel and would be great when you get 106gti,vts boys trying to race ya as usual but just the fun of redlining to 8200rpm in the crx would be fun and would leave vts and gti i think ?

at 19 i doubt you'd get insured on a 2ltr corsa anyway, not unless you bought a 1.4 sport and didnt tell them bout then engine swap

Get the crx if its looks your after, get the corsa if its the suprise element you want

CRX is the wiser choice.
20XE Corsa is by far the more fun choice.
XE can rev to 8200pm if you know what to do/and what to replace.
As for 70% of 2.0 corsas going wrong think you must have to many boyracers who rag their cars without looking after them up your way
And im paying £800 FC, EVERYTHING declared like for like on D4
