These may be stupid questions but just for my info!!!!

As i have just agreed to swap my car for a turbo corsa please could you guys give me some advice.

How many miles would i expect to get out of a tank???

How frequently would you reccomend servicing??

If my insurance company tells me the car is a 1.4 and actually argue with me saying they didn't make a 2.0 corsa after me telling him it was modified and they still want to insure me as if it a 1.4 for £600 what do i do?? except it??

So who has the number plate C20 LET????? As that would be good!!!!!!!:

MPG depends on how you drive it, but when you floor them I have seen 8mpg show on instant consumption on a trip computer before You should get something like 300 miles to a full tank being careful.

Should change the oil freequently on them to keep the top end sounding smooth. Maybe every 3000 miles.

You must tell the insruance company that it is a 2.0 turbo, because if you stuff it then the Police will be on your ass!

No idea who owns that plate.

Well i've loved corsa's for a while and i don't have the money or time to mod mine any further so i guess imo i'm gettin a good deal but a lot of other people say i'm getting done. Either way it will be a bit of fun and if i don't like it i'll get something else!!!!

Have got pics but not on a website, well there is 2 on pistonheads but aren't that great!!

plus the corsa will kill my ibiza, it would cost me a good 3grand to get mine too 280bhp, then i've gotta think suspension, breaks, wheels etc, your looking at 6grand all in!!!!!!!!!!
