its a fucking track car not a daily driver.

Properly compare it to a corsa xe and explain why the corsa is a better option as a track car?

Parts availability and price
Ease of finding a rust free replacement shell if you bin it

I dont think there limited to 800? i managed to find a solid but tatty example a few years ago for 600 which needed a wheel baring and that was it, drove without fault for 5 years that i know of.

Crx parts a vastly available and not expensive you just need to know where to look for them. I have a few mates that are mega into there crx's which would help me though i suppose.

cos it doesnt look like the back end has been chopped off, it wont sound ridiculous and it would look 10x better

got to agree with Alps there, I was not keen on CRX's until i had driven one and it was a excellant car and would be great fun on the track and that wasnt even a vtec version and kept up with my old astra GTE 16v, deffo worth looking into sarah
