Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral Paul R : Corsa SXi 1.4 Twinport

what engine is that? looks like its out of a HGV

That is not the engine I SED something like THIS,

This is in the back of a drag car.

Needs work to make it not "another corsa"

I cant justify buyin a brand new car then raping it with mods either. U paid all that money for the newness and then ur just gonna pull all the new things off. If u were gonna change the bumpers etc anyway why not just get a 2 year old base model or somethin and save a lot of money?

Its all about what you want tho and if u dont mind payin for a new car then you go boi.

The thing is that i never paid the full price for it. I got 17% off with me dad working in vauxhall. And i used ALOT of gm points so that took the price down:

It was

No deposit
0% finance for 3 years
Sport pack i got for £200 (normal £695)

The car should of costed me £14,579.
I paid £8,976.38

An nuffin is getting done to it until late next year - bumpers etc.

Plans for it in the near future is - 40mm, install and front windows tinted.

Thats the good bit!!! What COULD u get for less than that money tho. An 01 1.8 astra SRi/SXi?

as we were talking about you getting you front lights tinted i thought i would do a photoshop for you

cheers for that mark. looking good.

if you saved 5 an a half grand basically y dont u sel it an make a couple of grand off it as even if it sold for 13grand or 12.5 than uv stil made a profit an u cud pay the finance off an stil hav a couple of grand to yaself in ya pocket, makes sense to me but dunno if thats just me

Tis an idea that john. But we seem to have a bit of a vaux lover here so he may get another vauxhall,and hes lost all his GM points. And his dad may not be allowed another discounted car yet?

13 grand for a corsa!!!! No way in hell would anyone pay that!

A 1.4 corsa for 13 grand or an Fiesta ST150 2.0 for a little bit more,i know what i'd choose.Obviously the above applies to some1 hu has 13 grand,is over 22 and has no discounts anywhere

U can get so much car for so little money these days. IE/ 99 plate Volvo S40 2.0Turbo. Really nice cars IMO. Safe,luxury and power with ok looks

not everyone has a luxery of some no claims bonus' and 0 points mate

granted get another corsa but he cud stil get a new shape thats faster then the 1,4 twinport for cheaper or even get an old faster motor an use the couple or grand you made to make it unique on the outside as it wil already b nippy

personally i like the new corsa but i wud neva trade me corsa in for one as id b to scared to fiddle with a new car an i neva believe in finance on cars as that car isnt urs til 5 years time!

Me dad can have discounts whenever he buys a new car or whenvever he wants, From any Lookers garage. Alls he needs to do is sign and give his work code in.!!!

I would love one of those cars, but am not a Ford lover like you. I just like vauxhall cars all together. Theres a BIG thing stopping me getting one of those cars is that am only 18!!! and i drive 75-80 miles to work and back everyday!!! If you want to pay my petrol scoop, i will have one.

I dnt have that problem

Am not doing anything to the engine until me 3 years warranty is up, am not going to lose the warranty with the mods am doing as lookers are doing them. And plus the car isnt going to have a bodykit on it as am going for the street look.

Just an example mate. Sure you cud still get a car that beast that tho for 13 grand thats still insurable for u mate. I mean my m8 got a 318 when he was 18 with 1 years NCb.Cost him a grand to insure FC for a year.Not sayin u shud get a BM but u wud be really surprised what insurance is like these dasy. Only sporty names scare insurance companies. REckon a Foci1.8LX wud be a tiny bit morew than ur corsa on insurance and u cud get a 3 yr old one for 8k and its bigger,quicker and beter(IMO) might start a topic on this actually as we appear to have hi-jacked ur thread.


Main point is. Hope u make ur car gorgeous mate.Its your money

What do you think, lose the fog lights on the bumper as they are on the bottom of the bumper now and get this attached?
