I wouldnt mind one of these next year when im 19. are they 16v the 1.6s?
I will hopefully touch wood have a clean license still and clean insurance.
Just wondering how much i could get a standard one for wiv good mileage on. also what the insurance like on them. shouldnt be too bad considering its a 1.6.
anyone else got one and what are they like?

They alright I had one for weekend then following weekend I had the 2.0i SRi and after that I had Pug 306TDi... The 1.6 was great for motorway but my Bravo had it easy, the 2.0 was good and was still ahlf decent on insurance

yes that was back in the day, I loved that car... had a great sound system and I thought the air filter made the car sound like a turbo
