Cheers mate, i agree that Corsas are far more superior to Puntos. Its just getting hold of a decent one in my area, i will most probably start off with a standard from start and build it up myself...


Your motor looks great by the way! :thumbs:

Not as much as i'd like mate, 1,500 max at the moment, thats why i mentioned just starting off from standard...:)

Ur best option is a Corsa B 1.2 SXi. Can pick em up for bugger all now. Not sure what the B's have, think its about 65-70bhp. But leccy windows, mirrors, rev counter etc and planty of potential if you intend to keep the car, when u've got some NCB to slap a big engine in it.

Pocket rocket then :D :D So glad i done mine :)

Depends what your conviction statues is like, how much money u have to spend etc.

Sportiest models are the 1.4 16v Sport, 1.6 16v GSi, and 1.6 16v Sport.


I have AC10 AC20 CD10 and it cost me nearly a grand to insure my Fiesta which is 1ltr, so i couldnt go any higher than 1.2ltr.

Puntos are cool, but for ease of modding with the best selection of styling tuning parts, corsa every time :)


I meant by engine size.. I cant go anymore than 1.2ltr because of convictions etc...
