I tried to get a pic of a Corsa that was at powercrazy in lincoln today but my cam phone was playing havock!

Its a blue 3.2v6, Gsi kit and speedlines! Looks like it was sat ready to be picked up, wondering if it was anyone on here!? Looked to be one of the later model B's for its colour i think.

Lofty front wheel drive car with an engine in the front that is 3 times the weight of the original engine that the chassis was designed for. That added to the fact that the last thing on the designers list when designing the Corsa B was performance.

Not an assumption...........

I think a well tuned NA 1.6 and shedding some of the weight is the way forward!

Handling aside, I would well have one. Just leave it in third and drive it like its an auto. And that noise. Well worth doing.

You could probably set off in 5th!

I did that in my 1.2 clio once. Needless to say I had to change the clutch soon after ROFL

It had MV6 on the side or something, it was the same blue as JAKE's motor, who's posted on this thread. I found out later on its the bloke from power crazy's car, i'd imagine it to be forsale soon. The engine is from an ex cop car.

It sounds awesome though.

I'd have a 2.5 V6 one but would cost so much more to do than an XE and handling would be alot worse I'd imagine. Would love it just for the effortless pulling power and noise

anyone wanting to know how an mv6 corsa handles, give fozzy a call and he'll take you out in it, one way or another.

There is a V6 corsa that came from Powercrazy that i know of, apparently the front GSI bumper is the one off my old motor. I gave it to some one as a favour and they ended up selling it. One thing i will say is powercrazy
