I own a Corsa Sport 1.6 16v with a few mods and my mate wants to do a straight swop with me for his 106 GTI with a proven 135 bhp. I have spoken with my insurance company and it will cost an extra £25 to change to the 106.

What should i do. Please help!!!

as broster said, keep corsa although his is quicker corsa looks better imo, you can easily make 140bhp on x16xe and even more with tb's

Pugs are crap, and I know because I own one

They just have noooooooooooooooooooooooooo weight because of their good build quality

Now serious, just tune the corsa, remove weight and rip off all the 106 Gti's, it's fun to developed a car and beat the competitors

106 have crap build quality, much worse than my 406, and are a can of worms, it's a "foam" car
However their original suspension setup is much better than the Corsa one.
That's the reason people think their suspension design is much better than the Corsa one, but it isn't it's the same crap
So please use the whiteline suspension setup and remove weight from the corsa, more power from the engine (corsa engine has a lot more potential than the Pug) and presto, by by 106

i cant see why he would want to swap the 106 for the corsa unless there is something seriously wrong with it. Be weary when they go wrong they do big time and cost ££ to fix
