and the shell with all the bits works out at 5k which isent bad for a top semi race spec shell (thats with coilovers, 4pots, massive cage, light seats, new dash, F/G wings,doors boot lid, plastic windows etc etc)
then all u need is the engine, which again, i have seen Novas with 250bhp engines in with SBD throttlebodys go for 3k, buy one of then take the engine out and sell the shell on making maybe 1500 back.
i think for a top spec corsa your looking about about 10k
(well thats what my m8s got ;) )

I agree - but you'll need a blank cheque as well as a blank canvas :lol:
