of 1.7 Diesel power. 
Off to look at a 1.6 Sport at the weekend with a view to p/x the diesel for it.
Just swapping all the bits off mine and returning mine to standard.
Soooo looking forward to getting rid of mine in favour of a 1.6 16V sport!

1.7Di was cheaper on insurance than a Corsa C 1.2 SXi non-Twinport for my girlfriend.

Corsa B 1.6 Sport is about £350 fully comp for me so nothing really.

A guy at my old work tried to claim his 1.7 diesel (Non-turbo) Corsa was one of the fastest Corsa's Vauxhall made. Dickhead.

The diesel was supposed to be the LET project, but I can't stand it so I'm buying the 1.6 sport then maybe whack a red top valver in that or if I'm flush, a LET.
but in the mean time while I save, I want a faster car so I'm hopefully trading the diseasel in for the sport.
