106 GTi is 120 bhp, 0-60 7.4, 0-100 20-21ish. 128 mph top end. Handling is also top notch
Also very tunable, respond very well to basic mods. Steve/sootys car is around 150bhp from exhaust,decat,filter,manifold and chip i believe

Then again 2.0 16v corsa will be quicker in a straight line as standard, and will only cost £1500 for conversion and a bit extra for brakes, suspension and bits

xe the corsa and spend some decent money on coilovers, bushes, strut braces etc, and there will be nothing in it on corners.
Dunno whether the ones i've seen had had poor drivers in them but there's never been anything in it on corners
