Been told today that i'll have 2 wait another 4 weeks for my corsa, this is due to the fact that when the manufacturing plant has it's summer break the designers set about rectifying any faults with the previous car and when production resumes they start off the blank canvas with the newly designed parts.

im assuming faults such as slow in 1st & 2nd


Thus been told that in 4 weeks i'll have a 2008 spec car! Be worth the wait!

nope just panels etc etc will be change iirc

 

[richy]

how'd u mean mate, will it be like a facelift was on the c?

 

[TJ]

yeh basically mate like 1st astra vxr's off the production lines had black seals around the rear windows newer ones got chrome strips and piano black interiors etc.

Also any electrical issues with ecu's maybe and small easily modified stuff

THey dont have the time to re-design gearboxes etc etc during that period of summer break.
