   Hi Saxperience, i recently crashed my SX 1.1 and want to upgrade to a 1.4 for my next car, i would get a VTR but the insurance is pretty steep, especially with 3 points.
   
   Which one was the best to get out of the 2?
   
   Cheers

    i would say get a furio but on the otherhand you have said you crashed a 1.1 so make sure that extra power doesnt get to your head...

    furio because they are newer and citroen/french cars dont age gracefully, but if you could find a mint westcoast id go for one of them
