I would love to have re-done my corsa and drop an XE in but that seemed too much like hard work so enter puglet

Im on my first Corsa and i have only ever driven Vauxhalls.

Its been the most reliable and a good amount of fun better bulit than its Nova brother and the C16XE engine is lively and nimble.

For what ever reason if she was to go (which she wont at this point) i would definatly consider buying another one before i looked at the Vauxhall range again.

Did for a while, but hearing 9000 revs screaming from the Vtec soon helped me forget

Miss it a bit.

Even though it was sometimes a frickin pig it was nice to look at and wasn't as boring as a standard car. Slow though

i miss mine, was a much better drive than the saxo. handling was alot better. i keep meaning to buy another one but i dnt really want to spend all my money on a hatchback again.

apart from the crappy 1.2, corsa was alot better than my paxo

You got rid of yours really quickly after the conversion didn't you?

What car are you driving now?

I miss my silver one, I was such a dumb arse the bodywork was in excellent condition, and if only Lee had started doing conversions 6 months earlier I would have kept it and fitted a 2.0 16v to it, take the kit off and fitted a GSi kit, a chrome cage and fitted some nice 16's.

It handled good already with the Koni's so just needed some bigger brakes.

thought i would. but no. as said above, it was slow, uncomfortable, used as much fuel as my 2.5 turbo does now and it felt like driving a tin can around.

i missed the speed of my old 2l 16v turbo corsa but i took a vts in px and ive done a bit of work 2 it and its around 155bhp so its quick enough and the handling is far better than corsa also saxo has leather seats!!

i see my old turbo is 4 sale already tho

am tempted to buy it back!!hehe
