was out in car one sunday and the worst thing ever happened the car blew the had gasket pissed oil out onto the manifold n caught fire lucky i got it out quickly. finally got the car home and didnt waste netime 3hours later car was sitting with empty bay
phoned everyscraped yard in the north of ireland and not one of them had a corsa sport engine or a tigra then a fella give me a vauxhall breakers number phoned him he said he had a engine and was 100quid so striaght into the car went to get it but on my way there spyed a tigra sitting up the side of someones house but went on to get the engine go there to find out it wasnt the right engine it was an x14xe out of an astra so decided to stop to see about the tigra on way home so glad i did turned out the car had been layng for near 3 years they said it run fine and it only had 48000 on the clock so threw a set of jump leads onto it and it fired almost straight away so made a deal and just bout the whole car they just wanted it away and took 90quid for it here is the green beast
