Ex owner..
had loads of b's over the years started off with a 5 door 1.4 then bought a 20xe gsi, couldn't insure it though.

then had a c20xe grey gsi and loved it, i love smoke grey corsa's probably had 5 of them

took a break and went to jap cars for a bit, blew one up then bought a c16 gsi as a run around

and was building a let b, i had almost every irmsher part for it but never finished it

then split the above and sold the gsi bought a 1.8 sri c threw loads of bits at it and came out looking ok.

that was 2010 i sold that, been in high power jap cars for a bit now, thinking about a d as a run around
soon though, do miss some of the old ones though would love a tidy grey gsi again.

I used to have this van. Not gonna list all the mods as there was that many

Main one was 20XE engine with Schrick cams, slight overbore, CR box, wheels that didn't fit, mk1 Astra steel arches and smoothed out body. Spent loads of money and time on it, but don't regret it for the friends i made and trips i went on with it! These were its three main looks...

I sold the van to a mate back in October 2008. He sold it on a year later and thats the last i saw/heard of it. Think it's been scrapped now? I should really have kept it a while longer after doing it the Matt Olive colour, but couldn't refuse the offer i was mad for it.

Really frustratingly I think I only have pictures of the first one I had.

Started off as a 1.4 16v Sport, did a few bits to it, Lexmaul inlet, Janspeed exhaust manifold, decat, Blueflame (PVD BFO) exhaust, Pipercross Viper, remap with raised rev limit and it made 116bhp, also had V6 brakes, Koni yellows amongst other bits.

Got bored of the power and decided the best and cheapest thing to do was to upgrade to an X16XE and swap all the bits over, as well as fitting some bucket seats and then it made 130bhp and was a lot lighter.

Found a picture of my Corsa C -

and my SRi

was convinced I didn't have pics of either

Feel like years since I posted a picture of mine

Long story short...

Entire story from many years.

http://public.fotki.com/DaimoB/my_car_and_donnas_car/d4mo_b/

And the wifes. Still got it! Had it MOT'd this year, then done nothing again since lol.

Although I seem to have lost some off off my Fotki.

Some vidoes of the Turbo corsa.

Towards the bottom as they are the older videos.

Steven, please, we're in our 30's, time to grow surely?

This thread brings back the old times. I remember some of these being built up and now they've been and gone.

I've had 2 B's, although it's been a little over 3 years since i let my GSi go, which amazes me how time flies. Anyway...pics.

This is the 20SEH (2.0 8v) that i build running R1 carbs. Loved it until i put the XE in and it seemed to ruin the car for me. Had a good time building it though - and it drove so well thanks to its full Bilstein setup.

Back to a corsa for me, blue one in the middle. Bit standard at the min but in perfect condition.

All 3 are 1.4 sports.

Let the assault begin

My first Corsa in 2004. 1.4 16v Sport. Was standard when I bought it but haven't got any pics. Used to take home £800 a month back then and spent every penny on it!
