General information -
Hi there, i have a corsa sport for sale. its a 1.4 sport but its got a 1.6 16v engine in it ( still registered as a 1.4 so CHEAP tax and insurance) Up to new owner to change the v5 if they want.
The shell is in good condition but with its age it comes with a few marks, like the common rust on the front of the bonnet, but its not that bad just a few small signs showing, there is a small dent in the rear panel which could easily be pushed out from the inside,but other than that it cleans up very well!
The engine came from a 1.6 astra, but it has all the corsa bits on ie inlet, gearbox, manifold, etc. It runs spot on and on the first turn of the key everytime! It has had the head gasket changed and cambelt done around 6 months ago along with the water pump. How ever with most of the x16xe and x14xe the engine does smoke a tad on start up, and on heavy acceleration but its nothing to bad and perfectly liveable with just need to top it up a little bit every month. (no more than 1/4 litre). It does not smoke at all during normal driving
This is still a perfect working car, but it will need a few SMALL thinks to get it back to 100%. First of is i think the fan relay has gone as the fan no longer kicks in when the temp gets to just over 100 but works when you wire it straight to a battery, second the drivers front engine mount comes lose every now and then, i think this is because the rubber on the mount is rather perished and has seen better days, and the speedo can be a bit tempermental, but i think its a lose wire and will try sort this befor some one buys the car, the sender in the gearbox is new costing £50 from Vauxhall. There is a small crack and pin hole in the clocks plastic where the temp gauge got stuck and needed to free it off. These three/two things are about it, but im sure there might be something ive missed, but i am selling this as a sort of spares or repairs/sold as seen car although its still road legal and can be used on an everyday basis
NOW FOR THE BEST BITS!!!!!
The car has MOT untill feb 2011 and tax until 31st of Sep 2010
The car has FK front coilovers (80-120mm), and FK Racing Rear Shocks and 80mm Drop Springs,
Corsa Sport Gloss Alloys With Red Ring + 4 good tyres
Stainless Steel Powerflow Middle Section, but the rear box is standard with chrome tip.
Home Made De-Cat which doesnt leak
Clean interior
Quick Car AND CHEAP!
Recent head gasket, plugs, oil, filters, cambelt, waterpump
With a weekends work or so this will be a lovely little car that doesnt hang around, and looks good, just dont have the time or money as going to be a dad in the next week or so.
If you want to view the car at all please dont hesitate to ask,...
I think the price is worth it all day long, but if you dont ask you will never know
Thanks for looking.
