I thought you may like to know that our Zlet Corsa B is no longer with us as its dead. Had an accident on Saturday, ran into the back of a BMW 3 series at a set of lights. We`re hoping its a write off as we`re after something different anyway, 99% of people who have seen it reckon it will be as it looks like a leg is damaged.

Here are some pics













Apart from the damage you can see, the 2 front wings are fooked and the side skirts are all damaged

It was owned by us but as we are good friends with the chaps at Courtenay plus the fact it was the first zler in a Corsa B they wanted to show off the handy work.

We are thinking of buying the car back so there maybe some tasty parts available i.e zlet engine, roll cage, water injection etc. Keep an eye on our site (PVG) www.pvguk.net for details as all info will hit there first over the next week or two.

Thanks for your kind comments too guys.

If it had a crash bar he'd probably just need a new bumper. Wouldn't have taken much to do that when it's Missing.

The bumper has sprung back out, might have been ok with the crash bar.
