I couldn't insure a 2.0 litre. Do they do a 1.4? It will be staying standard and used everyday. Its a good looking standard car i think

like i said, the fastest one is a 1.8, they do a 1.4 but it's 105bhp, with 15 inch wheels instead of 17s.

I learnt to drive in a 2ltr diesel and it didnt half shift!
Was a very comfy drive.
