thinking of a polo or a fiat punto both around 2003 reg i think the punto looks the best standard and i know the polo could be the best modded, but for now i will have to keep it standard for insurance reasons unless
i can think or know of a car that my fox multispoke alloys can fit onto, the were from halfords, but for my car my question is what other cars would i be able to put these on if any?????

and pay £10,500 for it. Thought about that but its stupid money for a 1.216v! And the insurance on him after the yrs free is a killer, as my mate found out, due to the car being worth allot

sxi insurance after the free year isnt much. insurance isnt down to the value of the car anyway, its to do with repair cost, and nickability
the C is very cheap to repair, and not very nickable. which is why a 1.4 16v C is less to insure than a 1.4 16v B

If it was me and I liked the car before I crashed it, i'd try and get the same again. If you wanted something newer then get a Corsa C. If you dont want a Vauxhall then look at Fiesta's, Polos or something similar.

In my opinion yes they are so much worse, which is why i said i dont rate them at all. We all know Corsa's aint all that but personally i'd never buy a Punto
