my personal favourite is supershed so much fun for the money cost under a grand to make and the shell cost £50

For me it was DavCohens old 5Door XE GLS that my mate bought from him.

It wasn't the tidiest, the astra alloys hid the brakes and the exhaust had a standard looking tailpipe.

It went like the clappers, had many a laugh in that car we did.

I don't have any pics. maybe he does though??

an ultimate sleeper needs to be very fast with a good spec, not just a standard corsa with an xe...

the best sleeper is a car that looks standard but isn't if you look very close and know what to look for

what gives it away is big brakes, which i spotted on a standard broncade sport near me, soon found out it was a turbo when it launched from the lights..

Exactly.

I think an XE in a Corsa is enough to suprise most people on public roads. Awesome fun.

Thats bullshit, it doesn't have to have a big spec at all. A sleeper is a car that looks next to standard but suprises you, as in, a bog standard corsa with an xe WOULD suprise a lot of other cars.

i agree its a sleeper yes, and it will suprise a 'few' cars, but even some newer diesels would keep up/beat them..

and he asked for the ultimate sleeper, and like ive said a few times now a standard corsa with an xe is no where near the ultimate sleeper :S

Maybe not the ultimate sleeper to you, but people have other opinions. You still wouldn't expect an old corsa to be so quick, which defines the word 'sleeper' in my eyes.
