For sale I have my Corsa turbo. The car was professionally converted by a Vauxhall mechanic. The conversion is been done to a high standard, all the wiring is neat and looks factory as possible, the car is been very reliable and there have been no running issues.
The shell is a 1.0 Club and was picked specifically for the conversion being one of the lightest Corsa C models you can get, this gives even better power to weight ratio. I've also stripped the rear half of the car so its even lighter now (all seats, belts, door cards, etc also included in the sale). Its still a 1.0 on the log book, that will need to be changed by the new owner.
The engine came out of an Astra coupe 888, its a good strong motor with no issues, always ran on v-power and warmed up / cooled down. Mileage on it is roughly 86000. Its running a phase 2 EDS map which pushes these engines to about 250 BHP, the car is very fast and you will not be disappointed with the performance.

Bad points:
