I want to get my own place and cant save up owning a Escort Cossie and i also own this Corsa with around 250bhp with a proven 0-60 in 4.97 seconds.



Both cars use ALOT of fuel.lol

.Got a new 1.8 corsa sri on order.get it in 2 weeks.looking well forward to 120 bhp lol

Was well sad seeing the cossie go though

Would take me a while to get the full spec but off the top of my head is...

2.1 16v engine,SBD 42mm throttle boddies,Huge amounts of work to head,803 dark green injectors,group n fuel pump,MBE management,Big bore manafold,held together with ARP bolts etc

Has got alot of other work in other areas of the car i.e-bilstein suspension,285mm grooved disks with hi-spec 4 pots,rear disk conversion,poly bushed,quick shift,Am sure the gearbox has been fidded with etc.

Got 2 silencers and the backbox in the exhaust system to "try" keep the car quiet as poss as theres soooo much of a roar from the throttle boddies.lol

Its up for sale and want £6000 for it
