1.4 8v
0-60 in 12ish secs
top speed 110mph
about 75bhp im to believe
Pretty nice to drive if you are used to the pedals on them, dated dash like any 106.

All correct, although I believe they are probably nearer around 10 secs 0-60. They nice to drive, good handling (not that I could handle it), pretty desirable. There not particularly quick to be fair. Look good for what they are though, the ladies used to love mine.

Id say on comparison they are pretty equal to a corsa sport, although i personally reckon a corsa sport 1.4 would be a tad quicker.

1.4 16v corsa's are quicker than quicksilvers and sound better...and are more luxurious!
