I was debating whether to post or not because i'll probably get slated for being negative, but then I seen how much you want this topped.
You've got no chance of getting what you want for that plate.
It's worth 250 max. (250 including all fees btw)
It doesn't even look like anything close to corsa and apart from that its just a normal plate unless somebody has the initials RSA.

i wasnt on about you giving your opinion on what i am currently selling. Ive already been quoted on my plate and what i am selling it for is less than i have been quoted. Unless you actually work work a company who deals in plates then i guess u need to do a bit of research.

If you have taken a quote from a company who deals in plates and think thats what you'll get you then I think you should probably do a bit of research

Yeah i suppose i can agree with ya but the competion was so difficult to keep up with. but the best bit of it was the tremendous noise from my Zaust. used to proper wind the police up and I loved blasting under bridges and especially Darford Tunnel. One of my old mates filmed me going through the Dartford Tunnel and he could hear me but couldn't see me all the way to the other end. I was awesome, but you gotta grow up one day an I aint getting any younger. lol

did you ever get it rolling roaded? did the bore of the exhaust affect performance being rather large?
I remeber it was quite loud, i was next to you in traffic by Tescos one evening last year

actually it did make a bit of difference. The 19s slowed it down big time though. don't recommend anyone with a standard engine to do it unless u aint bothered about speed and fast pulling away.
Yeah did have it rolling roaded at 113bhp with 17s.

the size of your wheels wouldn't effect your power figure.

thats aload of crap. So tell me why is it then that when you see people racing their cars they use smaller wheels. Have you never been to Santa pod before. I also know this because my girlfriend and her dad are proper racers and he only plays with the big boyz. Oh and not forgetting that its a Cossie he owns with [guess what???] Standard Cossie wheels fo better grip and performance. He tried bigger wheels and lost power.

NOT A COSSIE!!!!! TELL JR!!!!!
FFS How are you gonna lose power by changing the wheels?? Are you saying if i put 12" wheels on my 106 i could play with the "big boyz"!!!
and yes when you are racing you use smaller wheels for better handling but it's not due to power!!!!

larger wheels will effect acceleration & top speed but shouldnt affect a dyno run!!

you do get faster acceleration with smaller wheels as it effects the overall gearing, also if the rolling radius is less then it takes less time for the wheel to do one rotation.
also the weight thing, a small amount of weight increase adds quite a bit to unsprung weight

i understand smaller wheels better acceleration etc, but it's never, ever gonna effect the engine power. i just can't believe how stupid this fella is! Some time i amaze myself with stupidity but this fella tops me!
