Re: Engine conversion!!
Zak :LOL look at what ive started, you could hardly call it friendly advise. Don't worry people im not an idiot i registered my car as a 2.0 litre after i had a nice insurance quote from direct line on my dads insurance lol he was worried about me driving it technically uninsured so he agreed to pay the insurance 3,500 lol sooo.... Who's up for seeing what's better, a 2.0 litre fiesta? or a 2.0 litre redtop corsa
When your ready

anytime, I've been in a red topped corsa and to say I was disappointed didn't even come close

She's right... it is.
As for Zak- what a complete flid. Stop being such a keyboard Conan and show us the proof. Just because your Daddy is Richard Branson does not make you cool- infact, it makes you an arrogant arse. Jog on sunshine. You have more s**t than a field of cows.

Re: Engine conversion!!
1st of mate, your 'conquering device'! you should respect what people say even if you dont agree, its people like you who make insurance expensive, ive got a permantly damaged back from a tugger like you @ just 22 from a bloke who was uninsured and to hear you brag about it id love just to knock you out, 'conquering device'! as said, learn to handle the power, cars are like push bikes you start of on the small ones and get on the larger ones when capable , sorry to everyone else for sounding abusive

Re: Engine conversion!!
I didnt read all the replies, but as has been said... if you dont declare the car as it is... then surprise surprise, your paying for insurance that dosent insure your car, waste of money? I thought so too. Also, as much as I would love to have some more power behind me, I KNOW, for a fact that I have nowhere near enough driving experience to handle that (being 18 also and driving for a year), biggest thing you want to be considering is a 1.6 and a well screwed on head mate.
Anyway rant over, if you really have bought a 2.0 redtop and insured it as a 1.0 (which could be doubtable), I hope to god you drive sensibly, if I managed to crash a 1.3i snail (something I'm in no way proud of) in the rain then there every possibility that you'll be able to crash/roll/ditch your corsa in any situation.
Anyway I'm not going to abuse you, just drive sensibly and think, if someone shunts YOU, or vandalises YOUR car, then you are not insured =]

Re: Engine conversion!!
First time i've read this post
If I ever get smashed into by a 2.0ltr redtop corsa and its you, expect your face through each window on your corsa to pay for the damage caused.
Thankyou, goodnight.

Re: Engine conversion!!
Been a lot of this on the news parents insuring their kids car then putting them on as named drivers. haveing a right blitz on it.
clad you may have insurance thuogh zak. remenber computer communications leave trails and you could geta knock at the door do yourself a faither look in the mirror and think how much you have learnt in the last 18yrs then wonder how much your gonna learn in the next 18yrs if you live to 36. personnally you may come a cross as a gammon slipper but I do so hope that sitting at you pc you feel untouchable.

Re: Engine conversion!!
im off corsasport... and i wouldn't bother joining there as im sure these abuse will be even worse than here!
you're silly to post it all over the net.. easy enough to give your local cops a ring and have them keep an eye
unlucky
p.s c20xe corsa's arent nothing special any how...
150bhp weigh over 1000kg and they dont go round bends...
wheres the fun?
you'd have been better off with 98bhp 1.6vtr or a 1.6 si
with low insurance and handle well..
hope you get caught!

Re: Engine conversion!!
Just a heads up "simon2sick," your multi-posting and wrong forum posting is likely to get you into trouble and all posts deleted.
Thought I'd mention it before the mods start clearing things
