Funk me that's stunning! I'd love one of them.

A pleasure to meet Dan (MiniManDan118) today, who sorted me out with a LHD steering rack, pedal box and various other bits. Thanks Dan.

Also picked up some T45 tube in 20mm diameter, which is destined to become seat mountings when the seat moves to its new home on the left hand side of the car.

I am in need of a couple more LHD bits if anyone can assist;

1. A LHD throttle pedal
2. A LHD Quaife steering quick-rack or kit

you could get on the foreign bay of e sites & look for a corsa b epas rack.

James.

Did you get to find out any more about those brakes?

I noticed a post somewhere which mentioned the UPG Corsa was up for sale? Do you have any idea of the asking price?

I've e-mailed Boris about it, but not yet had a reply.

Thanks.

Colin

It literally sold within a couple of days of it being announced it was forsale.

Today I've spoken with Boris from UPG in Bulgaria.

The Corsa is not sold, the asking price of 25k Euros (about £21,000).

on the steering rack, is there no way to use the right handed bits in a left handed casing? i know the pinion is on angle but the rack is a flat straight thread? maybe you can just buy the left handed pinion from quaife?
