the electric one in my first corsa went.


Would be cruising at 70 and it would just drop to zero and ping back up again


Mine was just a loose connection though

whoop fixed the speedo

took the clocks apart, forced the speedo back to 0, got it to 57mph again (in 2nd) stuck

pushed the speedo to 140mph, turned igntion on, rewound itself to 0mph

now works spot on, saves £95!

doesnt handle to bad tbh, feels well hooked up, lots for feel back, easy control able on the egde

goes well to, is a tiny bit faster than a corsa d sri 1.6 turbo, even to over 130mph

Honestly Warren, try AP Coilovers, ask anyone thats been in the Polo how good they are.

Not crashy, not going to rust within a week or seize up and only £365 quid.

I may have a set of the Irmscher lowering springs for a C available very soon Warren? Depends on who buys the car but I'm likely to be taking them off this coming weekend...
