Vauxhall Corsa VXR fully forged in Gildersome, West Yorkshire for sale
Vauxhall Corsa VXR '57' plate for sale. Lovely Arden blue Corsa vxr fully forged. The car has covered 59k miles with service stamps (may go up). Last owner was a women for 4 years. I bought it with 51k miles on and planned to go stage 3 with it. Just 1k miles later the big end bearing went which scuppered my original plans. This meant I had to rebuild the engine anyway so went down the option of forging the internals with Fully forged 79.00mm Wossner Pistons, PEC rods, block cleaning and honing, crank regrind with acl race bearings and full Elring gasket set etc (can send pictures of rebuild). All the engine work and measuring was done by Ashby and Anderson engineers Leeds with full receipts for the work done. Rebuild was done by a friend of mine who's been rebuilding performance engines for 30 years professionally. Done 7k miles since rebuild running sweet pulling like a train. The engine is totally standard power wise which means it will be much more reliable than the standard Corsa vxr engine which has problems with standard Pistons even standard. All forged ready for big power if you wanted to go down that route. Only been run on Shell Vpower nitro + since the rebuild and I also have been changing the oil every 500/1000 miles since the rebuild to give it a full engine flush and to make sure it's fully run in. Just had brand new coil pack and Bosch spark plugs. New uprated recirc valve. New rear pads and wipers. Had regal autosport a/c delete belt fitted a couple of months back as the a/c pipe had snapped and was easier just to take it all off as haven't once used it anyway. Plenty of tread on tyres. Fresh MOT till January 2017 just done. It's had both precat and main cat gutted to give it that little extra grumble but isn't as loud as an aftermarket exhaust system so still can be driven quietly as standard. Cosmetic mods such heko wind deflectors, pressed plates with vxr number plate holder, Arden blue vent rings and recaro seat inserts professionally sprayed and the very rare vxr Nurburgring edition alloys which have been fully refurbed and sprayed in anthracite with a sparkle in the paint. 6000k hid kit in a cool white colour which goes with the colour really well. Thrown thousands at the car and never gonna get back what I've spent but needing a 5 door for work reasons now. The car is 8 years old, has a few marks here and there with a few stone chips etc and isn’t in brand new condition but is definitely a good example of an Corsa VXR! The car comes with full V5 registration document, previous mot, service booklet. 1 key as the previous owner lost the other set. Any questions feel free to ask. Many thanks.
