It has to be a donor car. It's missing some papers on the car so cant get plates on it:(
Will try to find another white nova and make it just like this.

Good plans. Paint scheme looks like the same as Vauxhall used a few years back in BTCC IIRC on the Vectras. Except ours were Red not Yellow.

Is there much of a Nova/Corsa A scene over in Norway?

Yeh it reminds me of the vectra/cav BTCC cars (and the supertouring irsmcher logo)

Its not so many corsa-A, but we have som great ones.

can find some pics and post of corsa A from norway later.

the paint is the same they used in rally here in norway also, and the corsa cup racing series. Only corsa GSI in that series

I think the paint is cool, and will keep the next car like that.

just noticed on the car though some differences to our spec gsi's

it has the round cam belt cover - gte engine , mk1 centre console , and no elec windows lol

how strange for them to change so much lol

GSI in UK and norway are not the same.
No GSI's in norway come with elec windows. This is a C16sei from irmscher, GTE have e16se here in norway. The senter console is from a GTE yes, I have GSI center home.

In Norway all corsa fraom 88-92 are GSI, notting called GTE here

GTE engine
