The car is a 1997 black corsa sport. It was first used in late 1998 and now has
90,320miles on the shell. It started life as a 1.4 16v sport, the engine was changed
to a 1.6 16v sport engine from an x reg corsa. It was changed by a company called
SCPerformance when the car was on 73,656miles. The 1.6 engine going in was on
45,209miles and is now currently on 61,873miles!
I've owned this car for almost two years now and has been a very
enjoyable car to own, quite sad to be selling it but its time for something new
and a bit quicker  .
The shell is in very good condition for its age. obviously it has a
few bumps and knocks but overall is good. There are a few stone chips
to the front of the car which can be expected. There is also a small
scuff on the front bumper about a 50p size. The only other bad part to the
bodywork is the boot, it has a couple of small dents, and a hint of rust around
the wiper (a replacement boot could be bought 2nd hand for around £40). Other Than that
The car is in a very good general condition and the paint gives an awesome deep shine.
The engine is a very strong engine and i haven't had any problems with it since it
was put into the car. This can be expected due to it only covered 62k. The cambelt
and tensioners were changed when the engine was put in and that was about 16k ago.
Also done at this time was the water pump, change of oil, new oil filter and a new
auxillary belt. More recently than that it has had a new lambda sensor and new spark
plugs. As recent as this week it has had a new fuel filter. The car is quite powerful
and can suprise quite a few cars, its currently running approx 115bhp - 120bhp with the spec above.
The car is very peaky also due to the inlet manifold. This means that when you hit 4,000rpm it
pulls very hard to the limiter like a mini turbo effect. Very enjoyable and useable power. Due to
the inlet manifold and the egr valve being blanked off, when the car is driven fairly hard it will
bring up the EML light, this happens on every corsa with this modification and is nothing
to worry about. The engine can sometimes burn a tiny amount of oil, its barely noticeable and doesnt
affect the car in anyway!
The exhaust consists of a standard manifold into a decat, standard centre pipe/box
and peco twin backbox. The car sounds very nice under load, not too loud but gives
a nice deep tone. The centre box has recently been replaced due to the old one blowing.
The car handles very well for a corsa as it is down 60mm on gmax springs. The shocks have
been replaced within the last year. The suspension is very hard and not very forgiving
over bumps but this allows for good cornering. The car has very limited movement,
that allows the car to feel as though it is on rails. The car will also come with a lower
strut brace that i have bought and never got round to fitting.
The interior is in excellent condition. The seats have very little wear to the
bolsters. The car currently only has the two front seats in as the ICE install
is in the back, however the rear seats will come with the sale and are easily fitted.
The carpets and mats are all in good condition and clean up very well. The car dials
have been changed to white which looks a lot nicer.
The wheels currently on the car are Wolfrace Asia Tech 16" Alloys with an offset of Et 40.
The Wheels are marked from kerbing etc, but are still in great condition with no
buckles etc. I have a receipt from when purchased new and they were £450.
The tyres are all 195/45/16. The front two tyres have about 4mm tread left, The rear two
tyres are nankang ultra sport ns2, the tread on these are fairly low and would probably require
changing.
The car is fitted with a clifford concept 650 alarm, which is a thatcham category1.
This is very good for insurance prices and is an awesome alarm. It has two fobs,
immobiliser, anti hi-jacking and proximity sensors.
I have the reciept for the purchase and fitting of this alarm. It cost over £400.
Even more inportantly i have the certificate of fitting. Very good for insurance,
can bring premiums down by quite a bit.
ICE INSTALL
The install has been crafted from wood by a company called Sound Gallery and it fits perfectly
into the back of the car! It consists of a JL sub and box that sits into the spare
wheel well. It has an amp wrack that sits over where the rear bench would be and down
to the floor. Also wooden tops that form the JL Audio logo and have cut outs for
the amps, and the power cap.There are also distribuor blocks for wiring!
At the moment due to one of the amps failing, the sub is currently wired to a replacement amp, this
will not come with the sale of the car. All that would be needed is a new amp plugged in as all the
wires are there so its just a switch - easy! The system has just been rewired with new cables and is
very neat and tidy, and running perfectly. Everything is in perfect working order apart from the broken
amp! This is a very loud system and produces a hell of a lot of bass !
MOT + Tax -
The car will come with 10months MOT and tax till end of Jan 10.
I have lots of reciepts for work and parts for the car not everythi!ng tho!
£1600 ono
Any interest please drop me a u2u and i will get back to you!
