yeh westcoasts are 1.4 8vs - and pretty slow... I was considering getting one instead of a corsa when insurance was a bit issue coz I liked the bodykits for the VTR... in a way - i'm glad I got the SXI instead.

How can you say its slow??
It's only just slower then the 1.4 Sport as my mates had both and regulary raced each other.
There not bad mate, for a cheap insurance friendly car go for it.

saxo build quality is crap, interior is awful, and the seats are a joke.
corsa sport have better seats, better build, better interior, and u wont be in as much of a mess if u crash it
