Evenin' all,

I'm a bit of a newbie to the whole modding scene, so bare with me lol

Looking to buy my first car fairly soon and a Corsa C seems to be top of the list. I was looking at a Corsa Life 1.0L v12 and just wanted some opinions on it. Is the car going to be shit slow? Could a new engine be replaced at a later date, say a 1.2 SXi? and how much for?

Thanks in advance

thing is mate, theres no point spendin extra on an sxi if ur gonna take everythin off to mod it.

i got a comfort brand new backin 2001 because i dint see the point in gettin an sxi cos i was gonna be taking it all off anyway.

cheers lads. The thing with the Corsa Life is that the interior caught my eye, where as the comfort or elegance I've been looking at have had shite interiors. I know it could be taken out but I'd be more interested in modding the exterior of the car first.
