exactly! i couldnt stand mine any more for that reason! i loved mine to bits cos she was so easy to clean etc but the pug beats it in every department, for such a heavy car it handles pretty decently on a standard setup

Crap imo. Too many doors, no-one will beleive it's a VR6 and it'll be no faster than your small engined Corsa.

Look at a bigger engined Corsa - you'll have the Haynes manual for it already and know how to service it and everything on your current car will go across easily onto a faster platform. Then when you get to 22 fit a 2.0 16v engine and have all that with a very fast platform.
