Have decided i cant afford to maintain 2 projects, so the corsa is going up for sale.

Nautilus blue/green
69k,
P Reg,
20XEJ, Engine had a new cambelt, water pump, head gasget, rollers/tensioners about 2000 miles ago.
MOT till September
No tax at the moment.
Full 2.5" stainless system,
Spax RSX coilover kit,
rear has been stripped,
has a smooth boot and modified rear bumper (both in primer) have the originals too.
post 97 front bumper with badgeless grill,
have a full set of arches in the back of the car as the old ones were flaking and fading,
rear is sitting high but i have a set of -80 rear springs which will let it sit a bit lower.
15" Lenso RS5 in Gunmetal finish with chrome lip with new Uniroyal Rainsport (about 500 miles)
Astra GTE Brakes.

few bad points:
Clutch release bearing is starting to get a bit noisy.
Paintwork on the bonnet isnt great could do with being resprayed.

there are a few other little mods but nothing worth writing an essay about. any questions just ask

Car goes like the clappers, no smoke, very strong engine.

OFFERS AROUND £1200

We all know an XE conversion can set you back about £1500 so why mess around doing it and going through the teething problems when i already have and sorted them

Is it registered legally? Does it come with the plate?

Its fully legal, never had it on the rollers, but it shouldnt be far off std, hopefully not too many horses have died over the years.

Still contemplating parting with the plate as it may not mean anything to anyone else. if somebody wants the plate then let me know and maybe we can negotiate a deal.

bonnet and bumper is as in the first pic in the second lot of pictures. only difference at the moment is that the bootlid, spoiler and back bumper are all in primer, and i have removed arches to replace with another set (which i have, just havent got round to fitting)

the engine is a 20XEJ or as some call it a 20XE, one of the earlier engines that dont have a Cat.

is all legit on the logbook, etc. tax has run out but i will be happy to put some on there for someone if they want to drive it away when they buy it as its MOT'd till sept, and i am still insured on the car.

Don't mean to be a vulture, but let me know straight away if you're breaking it.

Right, car has to go now, as its taking up space in a crowded car park and neighbours have started to complain.

have taken the alloys off to put on the golf.

so if anyone wants to come and get a quick 2.0 16v corsa, come with £1200 in your pocket and take it away.

£1200 people!!!!

considering it costs around £1500 to get a conversion done i think thats a bargain as your getting a hell of a lot extra that you would have to get after the conversion.

DO THE RIGHT THING!!
