I could have had a P1 easy but im not daft with money so just settled with the lesser model Im not a car snob & I wont put myself into debt just to get what I want Evo will cost you more to run and insure, Evo 5 is import only also!! Id say if your in debt running a corsa then a scooby/evo may not be the answer to your problems

Its not the running of a corsa col.

I can afford the insuracne, i can afford to service it, i have just spent so much fucking money building it!
I could have brought a scooby as a 2nd car FFS!!!

Im just sick of it going wrong, plus the idea of 4WD is appealing

AWD is great, I can throw my car into corners at silly MPH and plank the accelerator into the ground, even in the wet and always come out grinning at the other side!!

Just go test drive one Jimbob

1 thing i'll say is I went from owning 2 RWD cars to 4WD and the 4WD although faster and grippier etc it isnt as lively as the others....kind of miss that - losing the rear ends fun
