I drove one today. Only floored it in first and second... Got some nice long black marks along my driveway now where I spun it up in both gears

Do the words four by four have anything to do with this new project you are talking about without giving many specific details about?

tbh, doing a 4wd corsa is loads and loads of hassle and would cost an arm and a leg
Already thought about it, and i priced it up to be about the same as buying a new corsa - that obviously included donor car etc etc
but if i ever get enough money spare, i will build one...because ive yet to see a 4wd, although i dont think it would be as funny as driving something manufactured to be 4wd though

Lots of work, but worth it, I'd say. How many hatches do you see the size of a Corsa, with 2.0 Turbo engines (tuned to around 300bhp of ocurse) and that are 4wd? Not many I'm not saying it should be done to be original either, cos thats stupid.

Twins aren't very usable really, not as exciting, but fucking fast

everyones done the twin engined thing because its alot simpler to do than a 4wd system, but aye it would be original and could be fun, although im not sure how it would drive. Plus you will have lots of teething problems, and tbh, i would rather by a propper 4wd hatch as it will drive the way it should

The pulsar GTi-R handles just as bad apparently.
Just seems like a lot of money and time for nothing special..
