Yeah for the time being. Always said I wouldn't sell it but other things are getting in the way and my insurance is a lot better for some very quick cars so who knows

yeah exactly the same as me, although my insurance is on 500quid on the corsa now so it is very convenient but not fast, even slightly haha

New Fuel pump vent valve has got rid of the EML

Had a dodgey drive home though revs are coming down slowly and it all felt wierd... Think it may have been a funny five minutes I'm hoping anyway! And the cold does make it behave differently but if not idle control valve will get changed.

Want a reliable car again

Selling off quite a few bits I've collected over the years. Wings are in a for sale thread that I think are pretty much sold. Going to put the new doors and mirrors up for sale as well.

Probably start pulling bits off the car in the new year.

Fair play to you Darryl, there are a lot of good cars out there that can be picked up cheap nowadays.
I have the same issues with mine, some days I love it and others I think about stripping it. Although I'll probably have one more year of shows out of it before getting rid.

Yeah, I know what you mean Danny Always thought I'd keep it tbh.

The plan was to make it RWD next year taking an omega and cutting bits out to make up a floor in the corsa but after a lot of thought. I can get a LOT of cars for the money I had planned to put in to it so have decided to just bite the bullet and get something that is already RWD and a decent starting point

It should be before april Carl

Still got their original boxes and spring ratings sheets so they can go back to GAZ for refurbs as I know they won't do them without the sheets or something

I'll send you a message when I decide to start stripping it down
