Ello. Anybody know what Engine is in the 1997-1998 Corsa Capital? So fair I've found out it's a 1.4, would it be a 16v or 8v engine?
Anything else I should know about it?

Quite nice to drive though, quite torquey. Anyone who has driven the 1.2 16v will tell you how gutless they are

I won't do it I was just looking. I want another Nautilus Corsa, can only find them in Vegas or Capital Trim. Will hold out for an Arden Sport
