Reckon I'm about same as Beardy 320ish. But hes on for bigger and better things! Can't see me going much more! Concentrating on it braking and cornering better now to make up for what I can't improve on power wise.

Icy.... afraid not!
Won't take it on a track until brake and suspention are what I'm happy with. Then I can properly learn to drive it!
Brakes will be on very soon, as I have them now. Coilovers, god knows when I'll get those! Plus a new bottom end to go in, then run it etc...

Very clean and subtle infact its one of my favs on CS, there no way you think that had 320bhp if it pulled up next to you,

Thats one of its major plus points...
People who dont know the car think they can have it.... Plus I can drive round un noticed if I want, if it was in your face I'd be having people wanting a race all the time! I'm leaving the crap interior in (think its a sport one), another thing that really makes it look standard!

The are clear plastic euro ones. Meaning my beam points in a very random direction LOL. I like than as the are clear and smooth, suit the car IMO! Want to bin the back lights in favour of standard I think. They are black lexus ones at the moment.

Haha venom! People love to come out with some right crap sometimes!
Anyway if they have never talked to me, how do they know we have the same engine? Mine could be a 1 litre turbo!
Or I could have a tropical bird under my bonnet that makes a loud chattering noise

I've said it in the past but that car sums up for me what a modded Corsa should be like! Airdam, big IC, other bits lovely.

Cheers Ian, its good to see the car pleases other people like it does me! Have to admit I fell in love with it the minute I saw it, never even really been a fan of corsa until that point!

just received a mail from the owner of the french corsa that will be at "King of Europe" in June 2005 and in fact it's a nova (corsa A) with 600bhp...
the engine is a C20LET but obviously not standard
