Alreet guys,
Anyone had any experience with 106 quicksilvers? Just wondering as thinking about buying one and was wondering what anyone thought of them? As a replacement for the 12v corsa so i know the QS ain't gna be a rocket ship but will be faster than the corsa! lol
Cheers

I had one. It was a desirable car and looks good for the insurance cost. Good if your young although they arent the fastest cars. They handle like anything other 106 aswell which isnt a bad thing.

i think the VTR's work out similar to insure, which is the better option for performance.
