0-60 times are a gash way of looking at a cars performance, 0-100 and 1/4mile times are better

and for people that say they got 125 odd out of a standard 1.4 are fools to belive they were going that fast, speedo is well out

get the 1.6, as they can be tuned quite a lot more easily than the 1.4. 180bhp isnt out of the question, and im sure thats enough to have fun with in a corsa! :lol:

The speedo on your car can be up to 10% out so 125 could be 112.5

125mph on the speedo laddy!

As Fads said, 1.6 16v is by far the better engine all round. May only b 1 second on paper, but the X16XE engine is a good lump.

OJC's stats are also correct.

best go for the 1.6 as you can squeeze more power out of it and it has a lil more torque. i had a 1.4 16v and wish i hadn't even botherd tunning it
