gsi is group 10, although loads of insurance companies wont insure grp 10 cars unless you are 21.

best off getting something smaller till you get a bit more experience. a sport (1.4) or a 1.2 16v would be a bit better/safer

i've had a few pints so i can't be bothered to read the whole post but i'm 19, with no NCB paying around £1500 on a SRi. if you can get a GSi for the same price at 18 i will kick your ass
CIS i'm with btw
