Vtec mini would be less weight than the C20XE, similar power too...

Lupo GTi for the pure reason of reliability and refinement.

Yeah, engine conversions can be reliable. But the engine isn't supposed to be in that car, if you get my drift.

Half of the fun is hoping it gets you to your destination without breaking

Nova turbo just for the fact it's the most powerful out of that lot.

In that case, redtop your Corsa. Easiest and cheapest option I'd imagine.

Or sell his Sport and buy a pre-XE'd one. That would be cheapest!

Either sell, and not get much of the money back, or delete this thread and stop dreaming

why would anyone want to own a nova . I'd go for the mini if it was a second car, I'd love to have a fast little mini, would be like a little go kart.
