i was thinking about that myself
wounder how long that pour box will last!
and the smoke in the picture!
i think in need to be more exact here
even though my insurance company will insure me on a 1.8 corsa b with throttle bodies, they wont insure me on a 2.2 or 2.0 turbo astra
right i need to be able to transfer the insurance (not start a new 12month policly like id have to on the astra's) so with that in mind it can be anything over 2.0 i guess, and nothing high insurance
just wanted something fun over winter (not the best of times to be having fun, i must say  )
maybe even a cheap XE corsa 
something that needs fixing?
or a diesel (would have to be a common rail one)
