gona consider this if i can't get a decent price selling my corsa.

either 1.6 16v or a 2.0 16v.
don't have the knowledge/ability to do it myself, so i'd give it to someone else to do.

what sort of price am i looking at?

inc. fitting kit, engine/ancilarries, labour.

i know i need brake upgrades etc.

also companies that do it.
know regal or courtney will be well expensive. what about beardy or cossvaux?

I'm about to use Cossvox and they're well knowledgable about it. I bought and secondhand astra GTE 16V for £300 so I'm gonna get the back brakes off it too. Try Cossvox and see how much they quote

Lee would do it and would make a excellent job of it. Bit of a perfectionist
