I currently have a modified T reg fiesta, 17s, lowered 60mm etc etc
I want a 1.7 puma lump put in, stripped out, konis, 300mm brakes etc etc....to do all this will cost me around £3.5k
Now at the mo im in love with my car but £3.5k is a bit rich...especially when i come to sell it and its worth an extra value meal at maccy d's
Now ive allways loved corsa gsi's...especially ones with a 2litre in....
You can pick up a decent 2litre corsa for less than 3k now...i mean look at Mavs....that looked immaculate!
Problem i have at the moment is im only 18 (19 next month) and the insurance on a 2litre would make my bum hole about 7 foot wide so id probaly wait until im 20 with a years no claims to get one
Where as a 1.7 fez i could insure this year....
Would it be a waste of money to what i want to do my fez only to get a 2.0 corsa a year later?
What are your opinions on this?
(sorry about the essay!)

I wouldn't do it. I would think about selling the fiesta and buying a puma
