some cars do do this its like some cars when you put in reverse they raise the rpm slightly to make it easyer

Idle control valve perhaps? Not sure what kinda style it is on the 1.6 but on the smaller spi engines its a steppermotor type which does wear out over time..... makes it do some odd things (like what your having) but beware, vauxhall ones are expensive and can b funny to get the right one aftermarket. If you get from from a shop then they need to get it from a company called Fuel Parts UK, they can get hold of an original vaux one for you at a fraction of the price!
