Decent spec. Not doing bad for an 18 year old! Dont get a corsa mate you will regret it. I got a 106 after a corsa and never looked back, had 4 now. XEs dont excite me. A LET however... Seriously though the 106 is a better car.

Heh, I have court coming up on the 12th of December for being a naughty boy in the beach carpark ( noone goes there and it was 1-2 am ) police sat and watched me waste a semi bald tyre to the wire and they waited until i left the carpark and done me for a defective tyre :/

Learn from your mistakes, Plus insurance is 1460 or something :/ bit expensive for my quality of job

Lovely car why are you thinking of making the change? Many people will say you will regret it.


If your not too bothered about getting a gsi go for a sport as they are newer and have more toys etc. I mean I do like my gsi but a newer sport would have probably been better as i have had to do a lot of work to the gsi to keep it running nice.

Aye but that comes with cheaper insuance though. Although saying that a 106 gti is actually cheaper to insure for me then my gsi

Think sports are a group lower though iirc


Mine keeps up with my mates gti now

Corsasport is full of people who don't like Corsa's Tbh Sports are good cars, but it will be nowhere near as quick as your GTi mate.
