Just been on the phone to the guys down there for about half an hour and he was sooooo helpful!
Told me the entire history of my corsa from when he got it in as a 1200LS and not the 1.4sri it says on the V5!
Also gave me loads of ideas about upping the power! Apparently there is a restrictor on it and if I take that off it will go from 170bhp which it is just now to 220bhp

Yes, but then when you're at a cruise and people are looking at it and like "wow, what have you done?!" you'll be like "errrr i dunno"

So what If I know nothing about it yet, I got it to learn too while my pal shows me everything
Everybody has to start somewhere you know

And who said I was going to do this power increase? And even If I did that I would be keeping everything standard and not upgrading everything? I suggest you find out the facts first before mouthing off like this

Exactly why I thought I would speak to GMC first see what they could tell me about the car and what they done to it. Told me about problems it has had before and how it was sorted. Be along time before do anything to it apart from getting the engine sorted and the bodywork right

When you had your child, did you notice your fanneh became easier for male access?

Please don't take offence to this I am genuinely curious.

Thanks for your co-operation in this delicate matter.
