the thing is that Im buying car and im from shit country aka Yugoslavia and im low on budget so im buying used caars and curently I found two cars (looking only for corsa ) one is 1.2l but I think that is veeery used car altough on dashboard it says it run around 90,000km's but it's at least 200, 000 looking by the overall condition of the car and it has no extra equipment, second offer is 1,0l ecotec with airbags ABS, Servo, EPS... and it's in very good condition. Same money for both cars... But the thing is that I don't know nothing about that engine. Im not planing to put any engine mods (if impossible)...

go for the 1.0l as it has more Bph than the 1.2 anyway. they are cheapn to run and insure altho 3 cylinders they are very nippy. btw u can have engine mods, drilled airbox and feed, erm ok thats it but hey.

Looks nice, wheel trims and back to black (if you can get it) to get the plastic bits blacker, with a bit of a polish and it will look five times better.

By the way, the front wheel has a wheel bolt missing.

I'd go for the 1.0 12v over the 1.2 8v. What is the mileage of the 1.0 ?
