very good meet and it was nice to see the v6 corsa's, they sound awesome!
few casulties on the way/way back however.....
robins car is struggling to run now may be due to too much oil, hope damage is minimal.... going to sort today, and mine has deeloped a miss fire whic i thought was down to plugs but after having schoey sort out some new plugs for me and a plug socket, the problem was still there on the way back only not as bad..... going to have a look, could be lambda related.... if not back to the garage!
cheers for sorting it people! look forard to the next one

yeah fozzy charges around £2500 to £3000 for the conversion.
Usually has the old engine out within an hour and the new one in within a few more hours. Longest part is making the exhaust and the mounts!

i beg to differ, there are draw backs to have a 918tonne lump of metal hanging over the front wheels...... other than that i see your point.

Whats the big thing with the V6 at the mo? are they not like 167Bhp to the Xe 157Bhp? all be it with More torque? and loads more weight?
Is it just to be different?

think you'll find its onlt about 25kg more. Anyway, if you uprate everything to take the extra weight its fine. Bet you've never even seen one go so why slag it off?
