currently drive a 1.0 envoy which i was gonna convert to xe, but ive decided to go and finish college so i wont be able to afford insurance.
so im gonna sell it and get a 1.4 16v sport i think, because theyre nicer standard

ok, question time! what age did things change on the sport? when did they start and interior/exterior changed throughout the years? do they all have electri windows, central locking and power steering and can u get them with air con?

cheers!

Get one after a R plate.

You get the nicer interior and steering wheel etc.

The door cards, and dash are black. And yes, the steering is the smaller 3spoke one. I think all sports come with eletric windows. power steering, ABS and air con was a optional extra IIRC

will insurance not be loads more? i dunno i'm in no rush, if i get a 1.6 after a 1.0 i'll need to get a really fast car next time, or i might just crash if i get a car thats significantly quicker than what im used to

standard 1.6 corsas are very tame. only 106 bhp so not quick. get some quotes, I found very little difference between them.

i found a big difference between the 1.6 compared to the 1.0. the insurance was about £150ish difference between the 1.4 and 1.6 iirc, well for me anyway
