currently got a 1.0 12v which i intended to keep a while and 2.0 it as its spotless, but im gettin bored as hell with it.
so my insurance is up in a couple of months so i wanna change to a 1.4, seein as a 1.6 is too much to insure
which is the best 1.4 to go for? ideally around £2.5k, and around a 1999 model, as thats how old my 1.0 and i dont wanna get a much older car
cheers

If you are keeping the corsa dont get another one....get something else...
Saxo VTR, Clio 1.6 16v, pug 206 XSI all in more or less the same insurance group as a 1.4 16v corsa. Just think these cars would be more fun to chuck around while you build your 2 Litre corsa
