So i ideally wanted a 2.2 auto vtec, but i saw this and have had a major rethink. Less fuel thirsty and probably cheeper to insure?

Whats peoples thoughts? Its a 5th gen 2.0i auto.

Wondering if it is off good value, and if i should go forward with it really?

If anyone knows the performance spec for this car and has some info on it, would be great if you could post it in this thread for me, along with anything else as i am seriously considering buying it

Cheers guys

In normal use you won't see a fuel saving, insurance might be a bit cheaper - you could get some quotes and see? Bear in mind you'll be on 4 stud wheels with a 2 litre, so same fitment as a 4G.

The 2.0 looks tidy, but I personally think you would be better off waiting to find a 2.2 vti.
