thanks jay for organisin this, it will be a while before i drive a car like this again, car was amazin never felt power like it!!!
Glad I made the effort to go over, was definitely a quick wee motor, delivered the power quite well. The noise was orgasmic, near creamed over the seat. Good few pops when changing gear too. Good work jay!
McBride you posing bas**rd :P
Here's a few snaps I took of it.

well i had to get one of me in it otherwise all my mates wuda told me to fcuk off and i was bullsh**in them haha
I felt so bad drivin past it in my 1.2 after haha
Took a drive in it myself, great power delivery it was able to put full power on damp/greasy without any hassle. Best car in its class by far but it didn't feel 250bhp to me, I know thorney have done a stunning job of making the car so smooth and direct on power delivery for the corsa to handle it.
That 3" milltek is still popping and banging away in my head, you gotta love that noise
