Sold it on Ebay to a kid from Wakefield so I could fund buying the cossie, as much as its a Corsa I loved the little thing cos its just fuckin RAPID!!!!! It was the second most ultimate street sleeper after Wennys Mk3 Escort Cosworth. Maybe it was on par, it was stupid quick! Stuffed everything I raced except a brand new Porsche 911 which, the bloke informed me, was 580bhp. He even struggled to get away. It was great!









Now it looks like this. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...8054&rd=1&rd=1

He even used my ad the cheeky git!

RIP a fantastic car!

Alps Pacino

spec when u had it erm >???

big_wig_074

no offence but i reckon it looks better now. its only a gsi kit,quite subtle really.

PT

I would have kept it standard looking for the sleeper look, is it worth Ł3500 though

BigErn

Same engine spec mate.

His adjustments to the ad are bullshit too. Its engine wasnt fitted at LMF it was done by the lad who owned it. He says 2 previous owners but I know the 2 people who owned it previous to me and it had 6 on the book when I had it. The suspension isnt adjustable either.

All hes done is stick an awful tupperware bumper and Gsi bodykit on it and replace the gearbox, cos it kills them for fun, I had 4 in it in 3 month!

BigErn

Thats no GSi front bumper, I think its awful.

BigErn

I sold it for Ł2800, I wanted Ł3k but let him have it for that for a quick sale as Id bought the Cossie.

big_wig_074

no but the rest is gsi,and its VERY subtle compared to a lot of awful stuff out there,suits the car nicely IMO and i HATE big bodykitted pieces of crap,sorry,only my opinion,but i think it looked worse as a std looking thing with a silly sun strip

BigErn

I agree on the sunstrip, I always intended to get rid of it but just got used to it and forgot about it. I spent all of my time driving it and hunting down prospective victims.

Munch

ive seen worse

my mate has a Corsa with a 2.0 Red Top on Bike carbs, rapid as fuck

Stavros

looks ok, front bumpers not great, but not bad.

i prefer sleepers, but most dont, and its not offensive at least

DOCK1

Get rid of the combat front bumper and stick a Gsi one on it wouldnt look bad.

Is that the one mick had?????

rsdan

looks ok, sweet engine, awsum power for a micro machine

Rs Baz

is all this about

On log book as 1998cc but insurance companies recognise it as still being 1.0 12v!

bollocks...................



as pt say's is it really worth that much Ł2400 is the most i would pay for that

A 580 bhp Porsche STRUGGLED to get away from you did it

Either he was over inflating his bhp figure so he didnt look like a cunt being beaten in a corsa or you raced a boxster

Martyn

Did you ever have it on the rollers?
I doubt its got that much power, 240-250 maybe, but not 280

LeviA

I don't think it looks that different tbh!

I still prefer the original pic though, that daft front bumper does nowt for the car

Porkie

iTrader: (1)

I agree... all apart from NASTY front bumper.

The standard GSI kit is subtle and looks good.

Cawood

its looks shite n chavvy now!!!

loads better as a sleeper

Porkie

iTrader: (1)

with the painted bigger alloys, a centre exhaust and the twin headlights it was never what I call a sleeper anyway!

Edit * and the boyracer mirrors and screenstrip!!!

Not a sleeper at all in my eyes.

The Corsa at TOTB was a real sleeper

looks ok but as far as been on par with wennys mk3 cosworth

its not even in the same league

Gary F

iTrader: (1)

Agreed

Drewman

Seen alot worse tbh, although I preferred the sleep look I wouldn't say it was ruined

jaiscossie

ballin

iTrader: (1)

Does that mean you are the tool who wrote:

Apart from the sunstrip and bumper,I like it.

Fudgey

iTrader: (4)

It was funny on sunday morning when the marshals where walking round they told Gaz to move the corsa off the tarmac because it was for competitors cars only, the marshals faces were a picture when he turned round and said "This is a competitors car mate!".
