1800 is really more of a realistic price for engine and a corsa shell,people seem to add a couple fo grand for labour and other fancy parts ect.. lol

even my first corsa turbo with p/plate N100 RSA was sold for £2k

, wasnt me that sold them tho , was my mates after i had swapped them for summin daft

and they found it hard trying to sell them at that price!! , and to think i paid £1200 for each engine and at least £900 each time for fitting!! , i was the mug that got rid of them for daft swaps haha , keeping this gsi tho

most fun experience ive had is in a guysnova that attends meets that i often go to.
gsi nova with an XE running cams, forged pistons, power cap fulll 2.25 system.... and a 150 shot of NOS

haha tis mentally good. only has the NOS on for 7 second bursts but feels like forever.

Pulls like a train

DG12 is near Annan.

I used to go out with a girl in Thornhill. Used to be up there every night.

The A76 is a great road
