please dont tell me you think corsa gsi's are quick

xe corsa is out of question as he wants something with a standard engine that will handle quite well

for someone who wanted a gsi that would be ideal, cheap repairs etc..

Thing is, a decnt nick gsi you're looking at a few hundred quid more so that would be ideal if he didnt mind(or you didnt mind) fixing a few things.
