Echo the above, real nippy little cars even if they are a bit ugly! Would put most production Corsas to shame, I reckon it would give an 1.8 SRI a run as well!

For a 1.3 16v it'll blow any stock corsa out the window.

They are rapid cars, look shit and interior is shit!
Mate had one which had cams, chip, stainless system! used to sit with red corsa to about 80 mph!!
Will kill a 1.4 sport and 1.6 sport will be close!

I remember racing one in my old 2.1 16 valve (Pre throttle bodies, so was running about 160bhp) and it was quick, round the bends he totally left me........it was only on a good long straight that I reeled him in and passed him!

Yeah they are not Turbo'd as standard but you can buy bolt on kits which give good power due to the standard engine being very strong. I remeber a while ago I was looking on an Australian website where some Turbo's Swifts were running sub 13 quarters!
