Does anyone need an upside down Corsa here? If so, you're in luck

Cheaper option is to buy one that's the right way up and just tilt your head a bit

So basically an Oz one, wouldn't that make it a Holden Barina? Haha.

Comes with a free Haynes BOL.

That one's been on the bay for a while now. BDs are brilliant cars and massively underrated in general. However, the fella's deluded if he thinks he'll get anywhere near 2.3k for that particular example.

Perkins 4236 conversion? 
 

it may have been re-bodied at some point in its life but retained the original chassis 

Expand  

That may be true, but if it has had a different body, a different interior and a different engine fitted, if memory serves it no longer has enough points on the DVLA score system to keep its original identity.

Also a 4.236 makes about 75 bhp and is flat out at about 3,000 rpm so that is going to be slow AF.  Although it'd probably drive up a vertical cliff in low range.

Ad states its a 300tdi which further suggests they've just stuck the three door's ID on a 90s five door.

May have been rebodied years ago before the rules were tightened up, Back in the 90s my dad built a “coiler” which was a cut down Range Rover chassis and running gear but with a heavily modified a series 1 body but it was retained the series 1 ID 
 

Even with those power figures ( which for the time were pretty reasonable) A 4236 was a popular conversion back in the day and quite sort after, I even remember people converting Range Rovers to the Perkins 4203 which my dad had fitted in his series 2a and is the only vehicle I have ever snapped a half shaft in and yes that was slow and you needed arms like Popeye to turn the steering wheel

My bad, it was mentioned earlier that it was registered as a 3.8 diesel which threw me a off

The things wrong:
1. OSF does not exist 
2. Headlamp resembles B&W chicken breast in fog 
3. Suspension depressed
4. Space saver on NSR (new buyer can spend longer being shit) 
5. Yes

Expand  

Saw something similar on YouTube. They paid £900 for an S class that turned out needing £9000 of repairs.
