Another corsa

Got fed up of the diesel, ive been driving nearly 6 months now and barely driven a petrol car, plus im doing no miles apart from the weekend now, so I thought fuck it, back to a petrol.

So here it is, going to view it (and buy it if its as good as the guy says) on saturday:



Bog standard 1.4 16v Sport, aircon etc, just had timing belt and water pump done, no worries with that then

Not very much plans for it really:

Coilovers
Wheels (Softstars or speedlines methinks)
Debadge grille

Engine will be a different story, planning on an inlet, full stanless exhaust, enclosed filter, and possibly cams, we shall see when the time comes.

Well it sounds different to normal only having 3 cylinders, but I can't usually hear the engine over the radio until the revs start getting to a couple of thousand (guessing though because I don't have a rev counter - stupid Envoy )

This is where someone comes along and says "Yeah but diesel = 10000 mpg". Thing is, Diesel is so much more now that it's hardly worth it. It'll be £1.40 round here by the end of the weekend. Petrol's between £1.17 and £1.20.
