Hey dudes Im think ing about buying a 1999 corsa breeze 1.0 12v "insurance purposes"
Will aftermarket suspension kits and other bits like exhausts and stuff fit this car without any trouble???
i mean, is it the same type of setup as a sxi or 1.2 or whatever???
Any help would be brilliant Cheers

iv got a 1.0 12v mate, there quicker than the 1.2 8v, 1.5D, and just slightly get beaten by 1.4 8v
you can get all the bits you want for them just like any other corsa, the one problem you may have problems with is the exhaust. not many companies make them for the 1.0 but everything else (induction, suspension, manifolds) you can get fine

The 1.0 12v is totally gutless, the 1.4 has much better torque, and should have no trouble in getting away from a 12v, if you so wish. will be around the same speed and performance as the 1.2 8v and 1.5d, no way is it quicker
