As from tomorrow the corsa and my van are going .
so need a new motor but cant really think what to get.
needs to be half decent on fuel
wouldnt mind leather
bit sporty
and nothing over insurance group 10
i do 2-3k miles a month
got 5k to spend.
been thinking of
Corsa 1.4 timeport with full leather
106 gti
Astra 1.6 sxi
or saving more and get a 172

2.2 astra sri which is group 11, if you dont mind a smaller car then it would have to be the 106 gti. also as leg said does it matter if theyre group 10 or under?

2.2 astra would use too much petrol , i do too many miles.
yeh the golf tdi would propably be ok but it would be bottom spec wouldnt it for 5k.
i dont want to fork out loads in insurance so dont really want to go above 10

Exactly a replacement, not the same car 10 years down the line with a bodykit

neither is the ZR in 1995 look at what a rover 200 looked like!
then in 2005 look what a new ZR looked like!
they look nothing like each other!
the same as the nova and the corsa!
the 25 replaced the 200 bubble, the 200 bubble replaced the boxy 200 so therefore direct replacement not just added a bodykit!
