FFS Adam - buy a trailer, load your Corsa on the back with all those shiney bits in the back, drop it off at your engine builder and let's see that bucket back in action

Why's that then?

Car standard at 189bhp and 184lb/ft has been tested at sub 7 on various timing tests. At around 240bhp and 270lb/ft it will pull a very low 6sec if not flat 6sec 0-60mph. My next state of tune will include custom fmic, hybrid turbo, uprated injectors, furthur mapping, then possibly cams and head flow and I'll be hoping for near 300bhp but state a conservative 270+. If it's low 6 now it will definately be high 5 then. Also getting uprated clutch, LSD and maybe if I can source one a second hand F40 gearbox (6 speed from new Vectra)

I have plans for this one.

I agree launch would be very difficult, but overtaking ability and 0-100mph 1/4 mile etc.. should be blistering.

it is'nt a rush.....

I dont actually need a car

I've been cycling to work recently.... i have the Punto GT today tho as i need it to go to football (dont 'need' it, just convienient)....

Fee uses the car to go to work.... but it would be quicker getting the bus

4 car household..... 1 car working..... no need for any cars
