M-Tech Motorsport Driveshaft and Hub Kit - Corsa B
The kit contains two special M-Tech Motorsport 4-stud wheel hubs to fit the bigger 2.0L cv-joints into the front suspension of the Corsa, and two M-Tech Motorsport driveshafts. These driveshafts are extremely strong and are manufactured to fit the bigger 2.0L inner and outer cv-joints.
Can you get this kit for les than £407

Do you know mow much it costs to make driveshafts? Quite a lot! They are expensive I know, but it's worth it. Cossvaux and Regal do similar kits which may be cheaper.

Are they fuck  .
They'll be machined (splined and grooved) from a solid bar of steel, like most other driveshafts, then heat trated. The Engineeringcompany i worked for makes shitloads for specialist applications, such as track cars, classics, and alot of hillclimb cars. Thats how they make theres, and they've never had one break.
If they were cast, the finish on them would be crap, espcially round the splines, and they wouldnt last two minutes, and also theyd be brittle and shear easily
