That will be an aftermarket jobbie then, if anything it will have reduced the car's power output by a few BHP and more than likely pi$$es the neighbours off when it's driven up the road.SnowWhiterThanWhite wrote: »the exhaust is a push on one??Understeer is when you hit a wall with the front of your car
Oversteer is when you hit a wall with the back of your car
Horsepower is how fast your car hits the wall
Torque is how far your car sends the wall across the field once you've hit it0 -
I've got a previous series corsa. 1L three cylinder, tinted windows, sports seats, alloys, chrome trim, (well no chrome trim anymore, it went when I put the cheap exhaust on) No declared mods for me either. All show and no go.0

No, factory fitted on the corsa. A shiny trim on the end of the pipe makes no difference to the power or the noise.0 -

Could do, but I get more satisfaction from watching the veins in the forehead of the driver behind, than driving the 5mph faster to achieve the speed limit they seem to so much crave, as they obviously can't work out it's only literally seconds they could possibly save. I'd do that in any car. And the corsa is one of several.0 -
Do you not declare to the best of your knowledge the car hasnt been modified? After all it could be chipped, bored out, race spec cams, rods, intake etc etc.0

Take a look the auto trader website and compare it to the ones on there ie: same year, spec and colour
it could quite possibly modified if you are buying from a young person who had it for they first car ( first car excitement) i no i did lol“People are caught up in an egotistic artificial rat race to display a false image to society. We want the biggest house, fanciest car, and we don't mind paying the sky high mortgage to put up that show. We sacrifice our biggest assets our health and time, We feel happy when we see people look up to us and see how successful we are”

It's a shame Vauxhall/GM don't do something similar to the Ford ETIS system http://www.etis.ford.com/ where with the VIN number or registration you can check the exact spec and options of the vehicle as it rolled off the production line.0
