Guest mattsupra Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 yer my supra is an n/a but i think its still pretty quick but the corsa is awsome paint isnt good as its a sleeper so any real good paint job on it would be a shame as its meant to be quick not show loads of stone chips but the mechanics are superb £200 tops would sort the paint out as its only front bumper and bonnet really plus a couple of marks here and there as an r reg car would have matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mattsupra Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 on the mileage thing the corsa as a normal 1.6 had done the same mls as the red top engine by i think its about 200mls out on the car being higher than the engine so a very low mileage corsa and engine and stuff to go with it too im sorry the pics are crap but its dark its late and im tired been a long day so if you need anymore let me know and ill post some better ones up tomorrow in day light thanks matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Dont the red tops have red tops? Indeed. This would appear to be a more modern version of a red top. It might go fast but it's a shame they drive so badly. All that extra weight in the front doesn't help much either. I used to own the "top of the range" Corsa GSi, I now know better what sinful POS Vauxhalls are. Better off spending the money on a 205 GTi IMHO.
