Hey all,

Time has come that i'm gonna have to sell the impreza..

I'm now looking for something that'd be cheaper to insure and run and figured I may aswell get a 2.0 corsa and feel the power

But seriously, can anyone point me in the direction of a good 2.0 corsa for sale? Not looking to pay mega bucks and don't really fancy any daft bodykits

Can't be that bad

It's just for a year or so. I've got the rest of my life to have different cars, it's just daft me having the scooby at the moment.

Not really if you look at what its got:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The car has no electric windows, sunroof, mirrors etc. Doesn't have power steering either. Used to have it but was removed when the conversion was done.

I think its fair value.

A new shell, no b pillar cracks, no rust. decent paint. sport interior.

Cossvaux conversio musta cost £3k alone...

None taken

TBH you dont really buy an xe corsa for the comforts of power steering leccy windows etc. thats just my opinion though.

Bonnet can be sprayed yes. might put old blue one back on anyway.

And Jambo, yes the conversion was just over 3k, so i think its a fair price too

Surely it should be electronic power steering as it's X-reg (motor on the steering column rather than any pump in the engine bay).

Mine worked fine after my conversion Can't remember off hand which connections it needs to the XE loom though.

not sure to be honest Tim. I dont think there is a pump under the bonnet anywhere though.

steering is heavy when going really slow, but fine when on the move. well,you get used to it
