Bought this yesterday for £2400 with MOT and Tax etc, all down as a 2.0 Turbo on the log book aswell.

Seen it come up for sale so had to have it, and here it is today


Before I go any further, just to alert the keyboard warriors I am not driving this at the moment, don't plan on doing so for a couple of years, Ive applied for a race license at a local small track so Its possible for me to take it out on there, but at the moment Im letting my old man drive it as hes used to powerful cars and is a very good driver, and he doesnt have the money for a sports car at the moment so hes more than happy with this













And the important bit..




Bought it from a decent guy off Migweb, its had alot of money spent on it as I have lots of reicepts for it.
Not sure what power its running, been told 280bhp but I really do not know, just know its bloody quick
Brakes have been upgraded with V6 Calipers on the front and a rear disc conversion using parts off an astra gte.
Its got a Hyrbid Turbo, F28 6 Speed Box and a Phase 3 Lynx Switchable ECU along with alot more other goodies I can't be arsed to list

So anyway this is my 5th Corsa, and the 9th in the Family but this ones here to stay and already have alot of plans for it which are all to come in good time.

43, hes heavily into his cars as much as I am so hes happy to drive it.

Turst me Im not going to go anywhere near driving it myself for a while, I know I would kill myself.
The C16XE is still going in the Green One, so thats more than enough power for me at the moment.
C20LET is staying for good, its actually a very clean shell for its year, very well looked after.

Was on ebay once before I couple of months back, and didnt sell as it had a couple of problems.
But relisted it on monday and I put a deposit on Tuesday and bought it today, he had all the problems sorted and even took us out for a test drive to make sure it drove fine, and it does drive really well.

De-chaving is the first thing Im going to do with it, for some reason Im really liking the pre-97 bumpers, I think they need to be fully colour coded though along with the arch trims.

I knew the colour coded bumpers off my first corsa sri would come in handy one day
