Yes folks its up for sale! New project forces sale! I've had this van 3 years and its been endless fun! Its had a major change over the last 3 years of me owning it and has never ever let me down. The last year has seen its biggest change, with it having plenty of money thrown at it to build the best Corsa van ever This year has seen it attend PVS '07 with Corsasport, USC on the Fast Car Stand, ZGZM Tuning Show in Belgium which i was invited to by the organisers, and Trax again on the Fast Car stand. I'm sure after its feature is out it will be again invited to plenty of shows with Fast Car mag

The van has its feature in Fast Car mag in the next issue out 21/11/07

So where's the spec i hear you all say!? here we are, grab a biscuit and a cuppa and have a good read

ENGINE:
20XE (first type of redtop engine) re-built 40k ago by previous owner (Roy Ritchie who built Lucky B's 250bhp XE Corsa). Re-build included boring out to 2050cc, Schrick competition spec cams, Coscast head, chipped ecu with rev limiter now at 7600rpm. 3 bar fuel regulater, K&N cone filter, custom made stainless steel 2" side exit exhaust sytem. Rolling roaded on a Dyno Dynamics sytem at 165bhp, 157ft/lbs torque on standard supermarket fuel. I have the print out to prove.

CHASSIS:
Spax RSX adjustable Coilovers up front, lowered 75mm with the rear on custom -90mm springs and Spax RSX adjustable dampers. There are polybushes all round to help with the handling. Wheels are RH Cuprads that are in the fitment of 8x15 ET 30. The centres are now in dark anthracite.

BODYWORK:
Where do i start? The rear panels were re-made slightly larger and welded in place and fully smoothed in. the rear boot lid had the window removed and replaced with a metal panel. a GSI spoiler was fit, and smoothed into one with the panel being smoothed at the same time. The roof rails were removed, with the edge of the roof cut out 10mm and welded back and smoothed so that the roof is fully flat now. Now for the arches! People ask and ask what these are! there are Mk1 Astra metal arches welded on and smoothed in. In the process of fitting the rear arches, the inner arches were cut, pushed up and re-welded so now the van can be run with the springs out and it won't ever catch! The front and rear bumpers are Rieger RS with the rear modified for a number plate and light. The skirts are m3 type fibreglass (same as Rieger ones). The kit was fully bracketed and is solid. Its all been smoothed in. The bonnet was 'bad boyed' and extended. The lights are smoked Depos, and the rears are clear items that have been smoked and lacquared. The colour is from an Alfa 147 GTA and is called Nuvola pearl white, and is, imo stunning in all shades of light.

INTERIOR:
2 x Cobra Clubman Bucket seats with sub frames re-trimmed in cream and blue leather with clear piping that lights up blue. 2 x Front door cards re-trimmed in cream and blue leather
2 x Door pockets with custom built 6.5" pods painted in cream matt enamel to match leather.
2 x Rear door cards re-trimmed in cream leather. Full dash board including MFD and font plate for heater controls, fuse box cover, ash tray, glove box, dial surround, painted in matt enamel cream to match leather. Leather gear Gaitor and chrome surround. Matching RH Cuprad spare wheel. 3 Point harnesses

I.C.E
Unfortunately the head unit will not be with the van, but the rest of the gear will be. This consists of Momo-Polk Audio 12" subs, 6.5" Momo-Polk Audio Components and a 6 channel JBL GTO 6000 amp.

The van has 7 months MoT and whatever tax is left when its sold. The van itself has done 65,000 miles. Its booked in on Tuesday for the tracking doing, and a service.

Absolutely love this van, and will miss it, but like i said earlier, new project forces reluctant sale. It turns heads everywhere, and even had people in other cars ask what it is, give thumbs up etc

I'm in no major rush to sell, and i know chrimbo is coming up

Looking for £4450 ONO Sensible offers will be considered. Might even consider a deal with a Corsa Sport 1.4 r-reg ish worth around the £1k mark + money

I will get new pics as and when i can.


















Harnesses mounted properly now
