This is a nice original driver that has been repainted red from the original yellow that came from the factory. The numbers show it was the real deal, the desirable factory Corsa, 180 HP turbo car. It looks good, gets a lot of attention and comments every time I drive it. Everybody over 50 loves it and people under 30 don't have a clue what it is,,LOL. Its a nice, reliable driver, and presentable at cruise nights and car shows. Although its really not show qauilty due to the interior and detailing, I have won two trophy's at small, local shows. Paint is about six years old but looks shinny and nice. The only rust was in the front trunk from a battery that leaked and the area has been repaired and looks fine. The rockers, fender wells and all the other spots that rust on these cars are in great condition. The engine runs fair, good power, cold natured, and burns about a half quart of oil every 2000 miles and this is common for a turbo engine. Gets 18-20 MPG down the highway and rides nice. Points, plugs, wires, and other tune up parts have not been replaced in over 6 years. The engine was freshened up with rings, a valve job and new leak-proof seals before I got it and seems fine. The tires show no wear but are over 8 years old. The front seats need new covers available from Clarks. This in only on in a collection of several cars that I'm selling as I have lost interest and just don't drive them enough to justify keeping them. I have it priced low for a fast sale. I bought it just like you see it then cleaned the fuel system, did a COMPLETE brake job, put in a battery and have been driving it just like you see it for many years.
