even quinn direct would rather glue razorblades in their eyelids than insure a 17year old with a 1.2 turbo

if your 16 and having all that done to your car you can prob afford the insurance, mines bout 2k a year so a 1.6 for you maybe bout 4k  its how much you wanna spend really. theres always somone that will insure you its just at what price

LOL Good work wasting alot of money on a no go pointless fwd corsa, with the most common bodykit around, before you're even 16. Thats a feat.

looks good, but your olny 16, so in over a years time that car will look so out of date, as it is already slowly dying that kit. It looked good 3 years ago.
Do not put a 1.6 in till you have earned your NCB.
You will keep scratching and braking that front bumper as its low, i know i had that kit,
anyway good luck finishing that, as long as you happy thats the main thing.
