dont think they are over rated the only bad point ive got to make about them is ive herd they are unreliable unless you rebuild them wich most people dont do. yeh you have gota point that maybe people dont insure them correctley but hey thats the whole point i suppose for young people to have sum fun haha

i would save your cash and buy a better car. Everyone on here will agree. Good thing about corsasport is that people know corsa isnt really a good car and people are not brand snobs so are happy to tell the truth. You could buy a saxo which is better and faster for cheaper than doing a conversion. Therefore, if you want an xe corsa, buy a saxo or save for a better car that is already faster.

The whole point? not really, it's a fucking stupid thing to do. If you can't afford to insure/tax the car then you shouldn't be changing the engine. Simple really.

insurance fraud isnt something to publically claim as young people having fun. What if you kill someone? Tell their parents or children you were just having fun.

There's a difference between a discussion and an argument. Threads like this allways end in an argument
