Sweet!!!

Cant beat throttle bodies, still miss the sound of my old 2.1 litre Corsa hitting the limiter in second at 8,000rpm! *note, shame it was only the sound I miss!*

What has made you decide to sell her?

Looks nice by the way!

Know what your saying matey. Same sort of reasons for me as well, plus it seemed to be an endless money pit!

If I had never fettled that Corsa, the P1 I drive now could have easily been a nice Carrera or Id have paid a good chunk of my mortgage!
