Ive been tempted for a while and after pvs i just fancy a new direction.. something a bit quicker, maybe newer..
at the end of the day its just a poverty spec trip.. granted ive spent over £2000 on it in like 2 years but its also my 3rd corsa..
Come on a long way too since last years pvs
Then:
Now:
I think im just unsure where to go with it tbh..
Im tempted by a 1.6 8v on carbs/tb's
but theres also the the temptation of a Grande punto 1.4 T-jet, working for fiat i get around 20% off and a new car under warranty, also cheap parts..
Opinions? suggestions? ideas?

keep the corsa imo. looked very nice at pvs. The 1.4 t-jets arent to hot on fuel consumption but they are quick and overall nice cars

you know i want you to 2.0 8v it 
but seriously, I can see where youre heading with newer car etc, thats how i felt with my old car...but be aware, newer isnt necesarily better  I learnt that lesson

ive driven the normal 500's.. bit of a girls car tbh.. cant help thinking a 1.4 turbo under the bonnet would liven things up but alot of the stuff is optional iirc

Im not even sure what it would be worth..
its ideal for a conversion though
Quick spec includes Bilstein b10 kit, speedlines, v6 brakes, braided hoses, whiteline rear arb, reclinining buckets and matched rear,
engine wise its a 1.2 8v with 4 branch exhaust manifold and decat, 1.6 inlet, 1.8 tb, 1.4 injector and nova sr cam. just had all the filters changed, oil change before pvs, cambelt done around 65k, now on 69k iirc
