I'd take neither on a tarck.
I'd feel better about selling the red sport and buying a decent track car 205 GTi, Old BMW etc . I'd rather that than swap my immaculate looking 'S' Reg Sport for a fucked looking M reg with a 'Fast' engine (which also looks a mess imo).
All IMO of course, its not my decision, But i know what i'd do and it doesnt involve driving to scotland.

all in all, it's a shit load of hassle to swap a nice car for a fast car which is essentially a pile of toss.
buy a better XE converted corsa instead.

Its true, when i had mine people round our way were still surprised, but obviously as we are all on a corsa forum there are going to be lots.
I now get the, "wtf is that " around here, quite regularly 
everyone goes on about doing 2.0 Corsa's around here, and seems I'm the only one with one

People have different opinions Tom And I don't think Timbaland has grasped the concept of the car. It looks like a shitter, as it's meant to

I think he's got the point just that if you want a track car there's other options that in the long run wont cost loads.
I also like to point out its a cool sleeper but thats all its going to be on 14's cos it will be like a fat bird on a set of roller skates on track.

I agree to an extent Fad. But if I wanted it to be a track car, then it wouldn't be on wheels as wide as a hot dog! But I can't see how it's a shitter It isn't meant to have shiny bits here and there. It's a clean car, with low mileage on the shell for it's age.
