this is Corsaplus's car (dave if i rember his name right) and has been for sale for ages (you will see why below)
but get around 10k-13k ready if you want it as he will not take no less
i have been in the car a few years ago and if very very quick and well looked after, kept in heated barn, and only moves about 1000 miles a year
the car is very clean

Basic the bloke dosent need to sell it as he lives on a farm and has loads of room for it, so he will just keep it until someone comes along and offers him about what he payed. the car is a proven 280bhp and can do 55mpg (which is mental)
and the car is as clean as corsas come, not a mark anywhere(bodywork is standard), so basic your baying a Brand new corsa B 2lt 16v Turbo
someone offered to swop for a cossie and he turned it down (this was a Donny a few year ago)
not worth 10k But still one of the first turbos and still a nice car

yeah, thaink doe to space, but surley that will make the pipework more complicated thus slowing it down, simular to the air intake manifold on xe's

55mpg?
I've got 41 from my XE at its best on a 200 miles drive to Cornwall at 60mph all the way.
The lightness of the Corsa will help but the mods to get it to 280bhp will counteract that.

Beardy you do come out with some BS sometimes 55mpg
2.0 turbo runs better than my mates diesel golf, or Donnas 1.2 16v
