Are you a comedian?

1400 is group 9, so not so daft but it's no Corsa merit.

I learnt to drive in a 1.6 Tigra. I was the fastest think 30 mph

So yeah it'll be ok for a car to learn in.

Dont see how mate, There not insured as sports car's like said above, Especially only being a group 9.

Insurance isnt so much based on ins. groups anymore, Its the area you live in, chances of a young driver writing it off, chances of it being stolen and so on.

More Corsa's have been wrote off than Tigra's i'd imagine.

I'd rather a modded Tigra than a modded Corsa tbh.
