That's probably the only one you'll need if your recreating one, looks like just an early SR with Opel livery MASSIVE
I've had a quick look but it seem to only find "C's" :( ... await Duicks input lol
There was someone selling one of the spoilers off these. Can't remember name of the top of my head

Theres quite alot just typing in "opel corsa sprint" on google images
Most if not all of those search results are of the sprint C and DR and not the R though.

Doesn't suit the red to me :(
They came in white, red, black and silver.
Think the white one looks the best but then i might be biased lol
It could be my fault as i resized the red pic and quite badly and its faded colour dont help.

Do you want to go Sprint-C? I might sell my kit for the right money.

Steve, in your massive archive, do you have a pic of a red Sprint with the Irmscher bumpers & side skirts?
Do you want to go Sprint-C? I might sell my kit for the right money.
This is very much a budget build, just wanting to be out and about in a Nova again and the Sprint R is something diffrent, drove it earlier my smile said it all.
Once the Sports done though i might be intrested in the Sprint C kit.
Only pics of red Novas/Corsas i have with the Sprint kit fitted, i know its a Spyder with jsut the bumpers and skirts but theirs one which is a hatch with the wide kit
