[northeastcorsa]

good mate whats the plans ?

[Doris]

Possibly one of the most boring cars I've ever seen. :P Best crack on with it ASAP. ;) :doublethumbs:

[jberry3]

Will look good with a few mods! Good alternative to the golf too slighty less common and cheaper to insure id imagine at your age?

Ive driven fookin loads of these and they are well nice IMO

[fil_b]

engine spec in this??

mods to be done???

[Chaz]

Tis a 1.8 20v Turbo with 150bhp 0-60 in 8.5ish

plans are 18" rimmage, coilies, black headlights, debadge grill, milltek stealth exhaust and a debadge on the rear....subtle :P

oh and a 212bhp revo remap ;)

[xshellx]

nice car will look good once modded my bf has the ibiza fr with the same engine and the revo map takes it to 206 bhp and the 0-60 time under the 7 second mark

[fil_b]

cool

sounds nice

same as tt engine???
cant u get 225 remap?

[Chaz]

cool

sounds nice

same as tt engine???
cant u get 225 remap?

yeh it is..altho i dont think the remaps take it up as far..think the 225 runs a diff turbo and manifold setup :P

[Ben]

Very boring but the plans sound really good!

Keep this updated :D

[Kane]

Looks bit boring now but when the plans r den will look sweet!

27.5 MPG tho not good :P

[Pvt Killer]

Mate the wheels are naff

had to be done, sorry lol

Sweet car though, can't wait to see it progress

[Chaz]

no more boring that a standard corsa sxi :P

wheels r horrible and have bad laquer marks so will be going but need corsa to go first!

will be done slowly..tbh enjoying the power and the comfort...climate control rocks...and the dash lights up purple and red! will get some pics later ;)

[Chaz]

Looks bit boring now but when the plans r den will look sweet!

27.5 MPG tho not good :P

haha yeah..takes like 3 miles to work an average and i took the pics bout half mile away..get roughly 32/33

[Chaz]

[gtc]

But getting this now.......what will you drive when actually get to 50 ?

Engine is the saving grace.

[PetrolHead]

Strangely i'm quite looking forward to seeing this car coming along :P.. How soon are the mods coming along?

The interior looks nice. and the exterior looks erm...

You have gone for black, would have looked wiked once modded.

interior is loverly yeah...exterior is gona be v.subtle tho...!! and yes doesnt look that great. but its not an ugly car!

[corsalee]

[Chaz]

that it is..so solid..smooth and refined..yet quick and not boring...

plus has a loverly spec aswell..im a happy chappy...i wasnt expecting a great response cos tbh a corsa is a young persons car, so a passat is not quite as 'cool' :lol:

ive done the whole...low, uncomfy, hard, noisy and impractical car...

[RoDDerS]

[HazzyP]

That is the ULTIMATE bore, sorry mate but WHY?

[partridge_88]

It's a good car.

[Chaz]

That is the ULTIMATE bore, sorry mate but WHY?

reliable...comfy...not an ugly car....loadsa trick bits...can look v nice with little money..best of all..pisses over cdti corsas ;)

[HazzyP]

maybe but it wont piss over a 24v Senator will it matey? Comparing saloons with saloons and not small diesel hatchbacks ;)

[Chaz]

maybe but it wont piss over a 24v Senator will it matey? Comparing saloons with saloons and not small diesel hatchbacks ;)

itd stay with a 3.0 senator :lol:

thats my choice tho..onwards and deffo upwards...

[HazzyP]

Thats fair enough, for comfort and stuff yeah, but for looks maybe not.
It may hang with a 3.0 Senny but not a 24v one, no way!
Well maybe with a fancy turbo and 10 years more development time it wouldnt get totally shown up I suppose...

a 3.0 one is a 24v one?! what other one is there?!?! :lol:

it would quite easily have stuck to my dads omega mv6 3.0

[Ben]

It aint no competition, its bout how you cruise in it

[Chaz]

deffo...on 18's soon 8)

[Nutkin]

whens the baby?

[Chaz]

the only kids iim havig are gonna get dropped off in the pool before i go to bed

[Ben]

:err:

erm Senator 12v mate...

http://www.carsurvey.org/viewcomments_review_15116.html

24v ones are quite rare, 24v manuals even rarer unless they are ex police of course ;)

[Doris]

Senator:

"A pile of junk"

Handles like a house, and a house must be cheaper to run, I wish I had kept my BMW

:lol:

[Chaz]

erm Senator 12v mate...

http://www.carsurvey.org/viewcomments_review_15116.html

fair enough. i expect my 1.2 culda kept up with a 12v senator...

why do some people find the need for me to justify buying a car 100 times better than a corsa :banghead:

[Ben]

So the senator things a pile of sh!te?

BTW I like ur car chaz and it will look great lowered with a good set of 18" on it :D

[Nutkin]

easily get 20s on it if i can fit 20s on the leon.

[Ben]

I didnt, you compared your passat to a cdti corsa which isnt a good comparison so I threw a similar saloon into the equation, comfort, bells & whistles, etc. Dont take it personally man!

[Nutkin]

That sh!ts on my theory then lol

not good though.

you ever seen the price of a 245/30/20 tyre?


bout a grand for 4.

[Ben]

I didnt, you compared your passat to a cdti corsa which isnt a good comparison so I threw a similar saloon into the equation, comfort, bells & whistles, etc. Dont take it personally man!

How about a 1.8t Audi A4, I'd say better comparison dont'cha think?

[HazzyP]

aye but ive never drove one so I wouldnt know mate!

[Ben]

aye but ive never drove one so I wouldnt know mate!

oh ok fair enough lol

[Chaz]

yeh i could afford 19's...no way 20's :lol:

[Ben]

Get 19's :twisted:

[jrmorgan]

19's will look soo much nicer. m8s got 19's on his bora wiv stretched tyres lowered on coilies. ul b happy wiv 19"

[Chaz]

hmm think itsgonna be 18's...bank wont b liking 19's! probably rs6 rims aswell ;)

Thats how low you want it!

[MJR]

I used to have a Passat 1.8T 20v aswell, nice comfortable ride but not to my taste and wasnt very fast IMO.
Also instead of getting a dump valve, get a ROV :) better for performance.
