I origionally thought they were bringing out a z16let engine to put in the corsa c or d, then a 2ltr VXR corsa!
All rumour though!

Photoshop of a Tigra front + Corsa c top rear that looks like.
Seen auto express today and not keen with its looks, I’ll wait until I’ve seen one with me eyes till deciding if its fugly or not. I do believe those pics are the Corsa D - no secret with it sharing platform with the new Punto and it looks err like the new Punto.

well according to sales at work, it was supposed to be launched as a new model in september 06. and vxr is supposed to be 6months later. as for engine it is using the same engine as appearing in the meriva vxr-the z16let.......it will not have the z20leh in as used in the astra due to cooling issues, and mainly the fact that the engine bay is too small to ensure correct cooling. also they didnt want to compromise weight of the vehicle by using a 6speed F30CR LCAN Box.
as for the c turbo, i really thought u guys were clued up!!?!
corsa opc-german variant
