well what should i do? buy a 1.2, sell that for a 1.4, sell that for a 1.6, then put a 2.0 in there? i used to drive my mums mini cooper s before she sold it for a corsa c (stupid bloody women) so its not like i cant drive cars with a bit more power

no man, if you can afford to get a 1.4, it will feel quick at first to wat youve got now, but youll be able to handle it easy enough.... then save up a bit, get some experience of a reasonably quick car and then step up to the 2.0 lol

I still fail to see your point . You make it sound like anyone that drives a low power car shouldn't jump to a big car straight away!

Say I drive the 1.2 8v for a couple of years then decide to buy a 2 litre car should I not be able handle it??

NO because the power difference would be too much

to be honest, if i could of found a 1.4 in such good condition, i would of gone for it, but this car was exactly what i wanted, albeit smaller engine, but engine wasnt a priority when i bought it

How do you know

Yeah the 2.0 is fast but its not that fast. You'll only crash if you drive like an idiot.
