For my brother. 1.4 16v Sport.

Needs little bits sorting here and there to tidy it up. Bonnet needs lining up properly.

Generally not too bad, seems fairly rust free, wouldn't take much to get it mint again with a little bit of time and effort, bit of skirt missing but has the piece ready to be fitted and paint flake on rear bumper. Engine seems to run smooth and quiet enough. Wheels dont rub, suspension is actually quite comfortable, Koni adjustables. My old Corsa had a much much harder ride than this.





Calibra heated (working) front seats too.

Mate of mine built it a few years ago (Rybo8655's brother) then sold it. Dont know if my brothers going to buy it yet.

Weird driving a Corsa again, felt like a toy car

if the bonnet was sorted out, with some smoked depos and some softstars in the same colour as the bumpers would look good

Is that just a smoke grey GSi kit?

Hope you are going to get it as immaculate as your old one Matty

I think its Smoke Grey but not sure! Ryan will know!

If my brother gets it I will try to get it as mint as possible but my brother doesn't look after cars as well as me and he works on a farm so he's up and down little lanes going to work all the time.

I think he should be getting a van really but he wont listen! Maybe when he has grown up a bit he'll realise!
