Having owned the XE Corsa for the past four or so years, it was getting to the stage that the 250-300 miles a week for work wasnt working out. Having sent the valves into the pistons a mile up the road from Demon Tweeks in Wrexham when visiting for work and a 7 hour recovery!!!! It was pretty much decided that it was to be repaired and I would bid farewell.



I kept it for another couple of months and two weeks ago purchased a new wagon.
although the wheels i always wanted for it came up and i bought them as well



So yeah basically got a Lupo TDI and its not actually that slow. Quite enjoying the ease of TDI living...



Corsa will be up for sale as well as a few trick bits i am keeping in the shed I would rather it went to a good home so if anyone on CS is interested get in touch

If only 16's would fit the lupo...

Get the Loop remapped. I've got the Arosa TDI that was mapped by Angel Tuning. It's now got 96 bhp and 190 lb/ft. It's so much better and nice and nippy now. Oh and Cruse Control is a must!!

He just fitted that as a on/off switch for the CC. He was too scared to remove the steering wheel coz of the airbag to fit the stalk.
