Well I did rebuilt it, got 1500 miles out of it and it thru a leg out, buggered a big end shell when I rebuilt it I think. So it now needs an engine asap before pvs

Not updated this for a while as i havent really done much to it. I got a new engine into it before pvs but the rings were worn on it so it was burning oil quicker than u could put it in! So I went to pvs in my mg!

Got a new car now so the corsa has been neglected since June! Heres pics of my new car, Its an early 2004 astra gsi!









So the corsa got negleted! I sold the suspenstion, the morettes, the cd player and sub went into my astra and i sold the other one! also when my dad moved it he fuked my back quarter as he caught it on the fence post on my runway Ill get some pics tomoz

Found a few newish pics of it b4 i sold the morettes and the suspention off of it!









Then i did eventually put another engine in it that i got for free, it was buring oil as well and chanced it at being the steam seals! So i rebuilt the head and put it in, needless to say it wasnt the steam seals but the piston rings again! lol
