[quote][i]Originally posted by BabyBlade[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by fordxr3[/i] I'm thinkin of gettin a corsa 1.2i 8v (well helpin someone get one) and was wondering if these engines are really as useless as people say they are? how would they compare against a fiesta 1.1i?( cus i have had one of these and they are'nt that bad apart from rust a tacky build) some people sya the sri is shite too so how much is insurance on one of them anyway for a learner under a parents name? would a 1.2i corsa keep up with a 1.3 mk5 escort? are the 1.4i a lot better?:rolleyes::thumbs: [/quote] my old fiesta 1.1 was faster than my 1.2 8v corsa but everyone else says there not so my corsa must have been f*cked, altho they are not fast. get the 1.4 mpi if i was u. [quote][i]Originally posted by Kiddy_Corsa[/i] i have an sri 8v, but will beat a sport 16v to bout 80mph.................. [/quote] I got the 8valve and my mates got the 16v, we were side by side the whole time to about 60, i personally feel with a good driver the 16 would beat the 8 valve for sure. [quote][i]Originally posted by Blazer[/i] i got a 1.4 spi, with a K&N cone and cat-back zorst, its done 93k miles, and its never brocken down on me, it does 0-60mph in about 11secs, and dont quote me on that, and say i'm telling bs, because we timed it and it was also slighty going uphill, with a passenger. [/quote] about 11 as in high 13's ?? know u said not to quote but i gotta. the passenger and uphill bit makes me :lol: [quote][i]Originally posted by Sooty[/i] LOL, I aint in no slagging match, the 1.4 8v sri is crap imo, hence why it was retired. How can you say the sport kicks in after 80mph? This is balls, the power kicks in individually through each gear high in the rev range. please listen mate... a 82hp 8v will not be quicker than a 90hp 16v in any performance scenario's. End of' [/quote] I have to disagree, the 8valve SRi is not crap - there not fast but there nippy, simple engine, sporty model, insurance is reasonable and theyre good to drive. The 8v SRi is tidy car IMO :P [Edited on 19-07-2003 by Sethion33] [Edited on 19-07-2003 by Sethion33] [/quote]
