Yo guys,
Been without a corsa for a few months now and feel its time to get another but want one with a bit more oomph than an XE. I currently have a Skoda Octavia VRS which is alright for a big family wagon but lack of grin factor really...
Anyways, found this one on ebay and wondered if anyone knew much about it? Decent conversion? Looks clean enough. It did used to belong to a lad down my way but i never got to see it, and he didnt keep it long as his ego preffered his porsche.

There's another black gsi LET on the bay which my mate built up but i suppose it's a bit of a trek from you. I bet he would accept £2k or less.

Advert sounds a did dodgy to me. Who takes a car in part ex then spends £1000 on it.
He doesn't know much about it, so that'll be his excuse if/when you get there and it's fucked.
If you bid on this, i'd go view it first. That's just my opinion though.

I saw the other one on ebay Kenny, not that keen on it though

My mate put that engine in, there's a small build thread on here somewhere. It isnt the tidiest but it never failed on him and did quite a good job, it's just a case of buying it and making it mint, it has the potential. The intercooler looks a mess because the gsi splitter isnt fitted. Think the new owner has rebuilt the engine and has spent a bit on the drive of it.
Would be worth £2k at a push but no more imo.
