well my GSi is certainly alot quicker than the old corsa!
the old corsa, at best, would get upto 110 on the speedo while on a flat road, and about 120 down a good enough hill (had 125 once, but soon followed by a loud bang)
also took about 12-secs to get to 60, but was timed a few times doin it in just under 11 seconds...

is the 1.4 16v corsa quite quick cos i have been looking at car stats and the 1.4 16v corsa does 0-60 in the same time as some 2 litres (lagunas, mondeos etc)

Remember the 8v engine comes in single point and multi point injection. The MPI is listed as same power output as 16v (90hp). Can anyone confirm?
