1.6 turbo and 1.7CDTi to choose from isn't it? hmmm I think I'd have the diesel, but the 1.6 turbo isn't far off the vxr spec is it?

Corsa D Sri for me. I have heard that its only the map thats different on the 1.6 turbo from the VXR, and there three insurance groups less than the VXR. So I would get one of those and get the map sorted.

Could have sworn I read somewhere they are actually ever so slightly different engines and had different engine codes?

Are we talking corsa C's or D's?


If we are talking c's and mk5 fiestas the fiesta as it is the same speed but will be a million times more fun to drive

Just had a look in the back of Total Vauxhall at the V-Files bit and they are different engine codes. The VXR is Z16LET and the Sri is Z16LER, but it says under the Sri 'Much cheaper than the VXR, and can be tuned to the same level due to identical mechanicals.'

They speak sense.

Zonda is a little bit nicer than both Fiesta and Corsa.
