As much as I like my bike I would take the 172 any day over a 1L new corsa (the best I could afford). I was thinking of the astra sri2.2 or a st170, but after a test drive of a 172 it had to be a hot hatch over a warm hatch. That and my brother has a cooper s, so I had to get something that will...
I know but I'm sure it would be worth it when the time comes. What is the cheapest/easiest way of getting them to 200bhp? Also has anyone ever tried to get a mountain bike in the back (with seat down) of one? I never got chance to try on the test drives.
Dont think I can afford anything for the first year at least. The first thing will probably be a SS exhaust once the standard one drops off. Its a shame it isn't as easy as changing the boost and adjusting the fuel pump/compensator as on the pug to get an extra 20-25 bhp. Oh well cant have it...

Hi you can get it by texting 83600 for £3, you get the vin, number of owners, colour/changes not stolen/scrapped and if its had a total loss claim against it. Does not tell you if it is a UK import though.

Yeah, cheers folks:) . Been looking a while on trader and pistonheads and to me it looks good for a dealer. He has 4 in at the moment so can compare the drive on them.
