this car isnt the fastest corsa in the counrty the guy james lives near me i think its running phase 2 as it still running the yellow injectors with 3-3.5bar fuel pressure reg! he got ripped off big time with this engine and it did actually go pop a few months ago, it was painted the same bodyshop where my corsa and the ka turbo got painted so i know it fairly well!
its not worth 5k imo, it still runs kkk16 turbo, i reckon its phase 2 though he dosent know "they ve fitted special chips" was his answer!
nicks corsa would absolutly piss all over his i bet there are a good few others as well! it has never been on top gear, can you imagine clarksons face if that went on there lol

Typical rich boy chav..
Lots of money, f-all commen sense..
Find out what your paying for, always the first rule, what your paying for, what you get, previous work, what exactly they will do..
Mind you, if he's have even thought about that, he wouldn't have gone to Regal in the first place

thats what i told him lol
he got ripped off big time but its daddys money, he's an alright lad some times , but he's the kind of people you would love as a customer, "i remember him telling me he was at santa pod the turbo went" so he ordered a low loader got it trailer to regal where they inspected the turbo sent him some bull shit on an engineers report and charged him 800-900 for a replacement race turbo apparently"regal didint even fit a rev counter to his car ffs, it was still the 1.2 trip, no ecu light either the ecu was cable tied to the brake or accelerator pedal so when you pushed it you could see the ecu lol was very funny

he tried to hassle me to fit a rev counter the night before the max power shot i was down the pub so he fitted some chav tastic one from halfrauds that glows 5-6 colours and is the size of a £2 coin!
