Hi guys...I'm back, well I might be 
Kinda like Tina I realised that my car, a W reg Sxi, was not really worth the amount of money I'd need to throw at it to make it anything special.
I was having a quick shifty at other corsas and noticed a T reg 1.6 16V Sport. My motor has done 30k, this has done 43k, as you can see it is obviously older too. I could probably sell my car and get this car instead, people think that is at all wise? I have not looked at it or anything like that, so I cannot comment on the body work etc.
Any comments appreciated.
Cheers
Seirrah

sitting in a corsa after my 205, its like climbing into a jeep. worst ride ever. brake pedal is solid compared to teh 205. gear change has just as much throw. i dont particularly find my change in teh 205 'clunky'
only thing that really gets me is the difficult rear view.
still like i said, im not trying to sway you anyway, merely reminding you that there is more to life than corsas

I saw the Corsa Sport and it was shite anyway. I think I'll add to my Sxi though, I'll go for a subtle look. Maybe make it sound 'better' than it is
