Go for the SRi 8 valve if insurance is an issue....
Personally I'd stick with the 1.2 and spend some money on spelling lessons

I'd definately get the 8 valve SRi, you can get loads of great deals on them....
cheap tax and insurance, beats most other 1.4's in its class (except cars like citroen ax gt )
Don't get the 16v unless its a GSi, will cost you so much more if anything goes wrong with it...

Ok you have afew options swap your 1.2 (take it, its an 8v) swap it for a 1.2 16v (MPi) found in the SXi thats 65bhp according to vauxhall or convert your corsa with a 1.4 8v unit found in early SRi's or speak to Lee Mitchell i'm sure he'll have a few ideas for you
