Hello from Luxembourg

[duick]

Hi

As I'm new to this forum since this morning, I want to say Hello.
My name is Steve, I'm from Luxembourg, drive a '92 GSi and an '83 Saloon (called TR over here) and I'm rebuilding an '85 Irmscher Spider.

I'm also the owner of the website http://www.opel-corsa-a.com that means I'm a total Corsa A and Nova nut :D:D and I collect everything about the Corsa/Nova I can get.

Cheers
Steve

[kronk10]

what the hell is that sprint thing was is it a prototype and was that a factory fitted wide arch kit. i bet that is uber rare to find that is so cool would love to build one like that. Oh and the wheels on it what are they:confused::confused:

[Novasport]

There was one closer than you think! I had one for a while but I sold it to a guy down Southampton way iirc. Couldnt bear to hack the arches on my mint shell to fit it.

[craig green]

Welcome to the site.

Some more european knowledge & input is always a good thing.

Are there any Opel or Corsa rallys or shows (treffen) in your area that you go to?

[Shaun_O'Donnell]

Welcome to NL Duick.

You bought a load of Vauxhall/Nova brochures from me off ebay last year.

Need to post pics up of the saloon, got one myself.

[Jack]

Welcome to NL mate. As said, saloon looks great :thumb:

[Shaun_O'Donnell]

Just saw the Saloon pics. Nice.

Like the boot seperator.

[duick]

Thx to all. :)
The saloon has only 60.500km and is completely stock. It was first registered on February 28th of 1983, that is the day of the official presentation in Germany. Until August 1983 it belonged to the Opel dealer and I was said, shown in the showroom :thumb::thumb:
It had indeed some rust, but I rebuilted it with a lot of OEM parts. The box in the boot was the last one !! available :eek::eek:

@ Shaun_O'Donnell: if you have MORE brochures, let me know.

[novacabrio]

Welcome Steve, hope you enjoy the site!! What took you so long to register!! LOL

[duick]

I'm was already reading from time to time, but never posting :D:D

[Shaun_O'Donnell]

Shaun_O'Donnell: if you have MORE brochures, let me know.

Sorry Steve,

Nova Sport took the last of them off my hands.

Shaun.
