Keerrpow, some serious wedge spent on that engine. Price reflects that

No speedlines though, or GSi bumpers, loosing power cos of that.
Nealy 15k for a 16 year old Corsa
Which mug would pay that?
Meh, worth what someones willing to pay.
You would have to be stupid, its a corsa.

IIRC, Andy's 214bhp 1.6 16v had about 134lb ft so I think that torque is about right for the 1.4 in its highest tune state. It always was gutless with torque compared to the 1.6 anyway.
Oh yeah, forgot this one

Why would you build a rally corsa as that has had some money spent on it take it for a test session then sell it.

Not badly priced for a ready to go and compete with rally car for someone looking to get started, not compared to what you can spend on rallying that's a drop in the ocean

So that you can talk for months on end on the forum you revere too highly, getting praise from everyone for doing it and you get loads of comments even though you know at the time you can't afford it. For some weird people it's worth getting into debt for though.
The amount of the this you see like this on the Internet is unreal, if not so much these days. My way of putting it is a bit black and white but it definitely happens.

Maybe he has just seen somthing else he wants to buy??
When I used to do rallying everyone had cars for sale because they where doing different championships or fancied a change or where building somthing else.
It's the right sort of price for a Corsa of that spec.

Would love a go in that. Would also love to see it up the quarter mile against a 20xe Corsa B
