One of the lads on AstraSport has posted this and I thought you may be interested..

Andy Coupé - quote

Just got back from the body shop, the partner was having her bumper and splitter smoothed over. The guy there had a Corsa B with an Omega 3.0 engine dropped in, infact the Omega floor was chopped and fitted to the corsa, its also running the Omega suspension set up, and will have its traction control and air con, should be finished some time next year where he`ll have it on show at PVS!

wouldnt have thought it would be that easy, you can only cut so much off then you start hitting the axles and wheels

Which morris minor is that? cause theres a guy up the road from me who owns a morris minor with a 200sx turbo engine. But i guess there could be more than one of them!
