Yeah thats Southport.

I'm sure that car belongs to Turbo Chris now, in which case it will have been looked after during its time in his possession.

I don't know how you could fit that engine and not bodge something, its hardly an easy drop in. There's a fair few things want custom building I'd have thought.

I want a C25XE with an auto box in my Astra but surprisingly

no one has ever done this conversion before - only with F20/F28 manual boxes...

That Corsa is the one Turbo Chris owned and sold, it has a PSG2 Wide arch Kit on it now.
The engine is 50/50 i dont know weather Chris or the owner before sorted it BUT when i went to look at this corsa (when i was building mine) the rear manfold which has to be made wasent made right and when the engine used to rock under movment it would hit the steering rack, meaning it needed a new rack every now and again.

Marc - no its not the one out of TotalVaux there have only been 3 x V6 corsas which where, Mine , Rob's silver one (3lt bottom end 2.5 top) and the Black one which was the first ever V6 Corsa was in Max Flower back in 1994.

i think chris payed £2500 for it aswell....
