Like I say, the insurance would generally be based on a calibra 2.0 16V IF you fit a C20XE to a corsa.

My car is now converted, still has mot, tax and is still insured as a 1.2. I'm only waiting for a set of callipers coming and I'll be on the road. 1st thing I'll do is change my insurance. If the insurance is going to be based on a calli 16v, are you saying it'll only be £300/ year?

My 2.0 sport was 450 fully comp to insure as a 3rd car, I swapped it over to my Corsa GSI and I got 70 quid back!

i got stopped once and they looked under the bonnet, but it was probably more to do with them not being able to keep up in there shitbox transit van.

You can only use your 9years NCB on 1 car, so if its on the Mazda then its irrelivant how many you have, unless like Admiral your company gives you an introductory NCB and matches it on your second car.

Mazda has free insurance, so 9y ncb is on the corsa at the moment. I've emailed A. Flux insurance for a quote but haven't heard anythin back yet.
