Is it a VTR? Looks like a Furio to me, especially as you couldn't get insured on a 1.6 Sport.

Should have got a Corsa

West Coast was MK1, MK2 look-a-like is the Furio.

Why cant you get insured on a 1.6 Sport? How old are you?

Yup - and MK1 VTS iirc.

Furio normally has stealies with VTR look-a-like 'trims.

Have you informed your insurance company of the lowering and alloys?

But if you read the small print, some insurance companies say that your insurance is void if modified from manufacturers STANDARD spec, so any manufacturer options should be declared. I know Churchill is like that. Also, in the event of an accident, if 1 wheel gets damaged, they'll replace all with steelies imo, not an alloy.
