Well you can get other 1.4 16v corsas yeh.

But the suspension and interior will be different. And it might not have alloy wheels.

the only other 1.4 16vs are 5door GLS's and CDX's, usually with auto in my experience.

and they are the same insurance gorup too.

I remember i was quoted £2800 to insure a sport when i was 20 with 0 ncb.

So i went and bought a 1.2 16v and insured it for £1300.

This year that is coming down to about £900

(all of those are fully comp)
