I had a Vtec crx before and it always felt quick even when doing the speed limit, pop in a 2.2 out of a prelude and it'll fly! :lol:

depends what ur after really..... and what ur insurance can afford. If your young and want a bit of poke for not that much cost try a VTR or if u can afford one an old Suzuki Swift GTI (them things have sum serious go lol)

why not just get a bigger engined corsa though since your used to the way they handle? Like a 1.4 or 1.6 sport or even a c20xe one :p

problem with going old skule is finding a good example that hasnt been owned by a 17 year old chav at sum point that has decided to rape it every day lol. there are some very nice ones around bt they go for a fair bit of cash now and the cheaper ones have often been used and abused. lots of spares around tho so if ur a mechanic and can do the work urself then its pretty cheap to keep even an abused one of the road.... bt if u want to go old-skule try one of them mk1 polos (the bread-van ones) or even a mk1 caddy :p
