hi,
i'm new to corsa sport so I just thought ad say hi. I drive a 1.2 16v sxi corsa b, which has had a few modds done to it, and is currently in the bodyshop getting sum more done. But I am getting ideas together for my new corsa, and wondered what engine you would recommend, either a 2ltr, 2ltr turbo, or a 2.5 v6? cheers

Anyone can have a v6, 2litre turbo etc! All depends if you declare it, which IMO i wouldn't even consider not doing.
I've checked a few registrations out on a site of 20xe's etc, some are still paying the lighter tax, tut tut!
