Thanks to everyone for all the comments about my car, dont really know what else to say, still no luck with this corsa though, anyway will have to leave it until the end of the month for a return visit to Southend so will keep an eye out for it again, like i said earlier gonna use these two weeks until the 23rd of September to get my car ready for my quarter mile run at santa pod, what kind of times do you get in your corsa's both modded and unmodded, i have seen one car on here who was boasting over 30,000 bhp and a quarter mile in 0.3 secs now thats fast

i hope so, i dont really know, i know its 0 - 60 is meant to be 4.9, so i might get a time of 13 to 14 hopefully, just need to take my two kicker 15" square subs out the back to free up some weight loss ,

Thanks Phil W, but i think i am going to stop looking for this Corsa as it will start confusing everyone on here as well, its not the car below, as the car had no tints, the back lights were clear and the car was fully white, even the plastic along the door, nice car though, i gather this is a monster to then

Thanks again, for all the comments, and yeah i have noticed looking around this forum there are loads of different makes and models posted up, some forums would have locked this thread or the brigade would have come out by now ripping the shreads out of me.

With so many members tastes very so much, I'm a Ford fan at heart but stumbled across Vauxhalls by chance and now have a wide appreciation for all kinds of c ars.
Growing up with a car crazed family helped things tho 
Its your fault I was looking at E30 m3s on the trader earlier

I was not exaclty racing it either as i was in a convoy of about 4 cars, but one of the drivers in my convoy hinted for me to go after it, at the M25 turn off/Dartford Tunnel approach i waited for it to fly by, dropped gear, pulled out around a couple of cars flew into the right hand lane and could see it about 15 car spaces in front, it was looking like i was starting to catch up either by the Corsa driver slowing down, or me catching up, and then some Plonker in a VW Golf CL pulled right out in front of me and stopped me in my path, trying to show me he had some form of power , so i hit the brakes and went back to normal speed. After this i did catch up to the Corsa and gave the driver the , i took off after that not to fast though, waiting to see probably the fifth fly by by the Corsa but nothing. I called back to some of my lads i had left behind in my convoy and they said they all passed him, and he was cruising in the slow lane.
Thats another reason why i came on here to look for the owner just to make sure, everything is ok with the car, as it would be a pity if something went wrong, I did see a spark from the rear near the exhaust, but if it was turbo'ed that would be normal.

That's a v6 lump, probably a 2.5 or maybe an 3.0?
