As some of you may have read in another thread I got a new car, picked it up tonight and got some nice piccys however I think the cable thingy is fooked as they wont transfer onto the pc, going to get a borrow of someone elses cam over the weekend and get some more pics though
Anyway the car was in classifieds not that long ago so u may have seen it 
Its a Black Corsa B Supercharged 
Speedlines, lowered etc 
One thing I dont like is the very very very loud exhuast! Had to drive home for 2 hours with my ears popped and could hardly think 
Few bits and pieces need done to it though, few wee bits of rust, new arch etc but its not my daily driver so not that bothered just going to get it looking new again over the winter 
Will get piccys as soon as I can for ya's!

Nothing like what I thought! My tigra was quite bumpy and you felt every little hole in the road so was expecting about the same with the corsa but it was very smooth! Very very loud though  Good job didnt have any music as the exhaust and engine would of just drowned it out anyway!

... will be interesting to see how quick it is etc.... and if the power figures are acurate. Did you get RR plots with it? Were they done when the conversion was done, by GMC?

Was 170.03bhp but done at GMC by the guy who had it before Kenzi. Kenzi got it with nothing.
But getting RR'd on the 26th so will be able to get some stats then
