Vauxhall Corsa 2.0 Turbo. It was previously a Corsa Sport 1.4i . The car is a 1998 model. The engine was converted in 1999. The car is 200BHP+ , when i brought the car off previous owner he said it was chipped by evo software by wallace performance, but unsure which software is used. Have receipt for the software tho it does not say which chip version/number also been remapped. According to the previous owner it was running 260/280BHP. I have not had the chance to get it on a rolling roads as i have been to busy. The engine was supposidly rebuilt before it was put in the car, tho in the hundreds of receipts there isnt any recognition i can see of this. The Turbo was also reconned about 7k ago, there is a receipt of this. "was carried out by turbo technics". Turbo also has a cossie accurator The mileage on clocks is just under 19000.
7 Months Remaining on tax
MOT until Feb 2006
The car has standard Corsa GSI sport kit. Electric Windows. Central Locking. Cat 1 Alarm.
Frontera Intercooler
V6 Calipers, Big Brakes
Performance Exhaust
Bailey Dump Valve
Boost Gauge
17" BK Racing alloys, all tyres have a fair bit of tread left.
Avo Suspension
Clear Side repeaters
M3 Mirrors
Calibra Leather Interior
Rear Doorcard mounted with 6*9's (not wired up)
This Car is not for the light hearted, its very fast. If your wanting to go off the clocks then you can its just matter of putting your foot down.
Bad points
The rear leather seats "the standard calibra rear wouldnt fit the corsa, so it was matter of recovering the rear seats. The rear leather is held together by cable ties, i was waiting for the lady across the road to get it all sown together, tho she has been to busy."
This type of car needs to be maintained alot (general servicing).
Car rubs a bit of the rear if more than 2 people sit in the back (possibly rubs if u have 2 huge people in back but havent had that 1 yet )
Dials read 10mph out (previous owner put incorrect white dials in (10-130) should be 0-130.
It is a noisy car, if you like quiet cars this isnt for you. (engine roaring, dump valve going etc) there are a few tinny noises unsure what that is, has always done it. the fan belt sometimes squeeks but its stopped doing so in last month or two.
slight bit of paint come off on rear bumper (next to arch (picture attatched)
Reason for selling, i was going to be going to UNI, i declined my offer as i shall be going to work in the city (Train to and from), where as i would have needed car to go to and from uni (20 min drive). Working in the city 5 days a week, not using a car to much on the weekend. I pay a fair bit on insurance ( 19Yrs old 1yrs no claims = alot on insurance).
Loads of Receipts
Any questions etc plz U2U me
