You'll pay more insuring a converted 1.6 than a corsa that came standard with a 1.6

as theres no real major mods to your car just bolt on stuff, i think it would be better buying a clean silver 1.6 sport and putting all your bits onto it..

just my opinion though matey

not really, not if you have the engine checked over before it goes in, will probably be more realible if anything

im in the same boat mate but i would make sense for you to but a silver sport and swap your bits over but for me its impossible to find the same colour car with a 1.6 in and swap my bits over.

iv u2ud beardy about a 1.6 conversion last week but has not getting back to me yet.
