Nah man i love the idea of big engine wee car, and i love my corsa too. Ive only had it about half a year so not time to change yet. I will maybe wait to tell the insurance company about it until i am 20 in nearly a year cos it shud drop a gud bit then. I have no ncb and 3 penalty points and live in nortern ireland so that will all add to the price also

Your post says you will wait till your 20 to tell the insurance company, not you will wait till you 20 to do the conversion!
