Not one myself. I was looking for a good not rusted to hell xr2i. But as they are asking world prices for just a simple 1.6 i stopped looking for them. And this one is just fun. THe corsa goes like a little rocket

I've had a '98 Corsa B 1.4 16V. Good engine. No oil and low fuel consumption, reliable car until it blew the head gasket and ruined the head @ 160.000 km. Power wasn't too bad after all, but it's nothing compared with my Fiesta ST But the suspension on the XR2i is better. Corsa B still has got the same suspension on the front like my old MK2 Fiesta.

And get rid of that ugly wheels. I know they're GSi standard, but... you know...
