Just out of interest, how far apart are the nova and the corsa in terms of evolution?
For example:
the front end, are the dimensions under the bonnet the same?
Is it the same distance between the front turret centres?
Are they almost the same inner wings?
Wheelbase, track etc?

Was just wondering.

The track is wider as corsa drive shalfs are longer, and rear axle is (iirc) 20mm wider too.

Turrets woule be different too i should imagine knowing the above.

But thats all i know, under the bonnet i think the chassis legs are the same or similar distance apart, but apart from that i dont know.

based around the same chassis but still everything is designed different. i would say each dimension of the corsa is bigger. for instance you dont need to modify the chassis leg in a corsa to clear a c20xe alternator... strut braces would be an inch or two longer all round on a corsa aswell..
