just abit of information for those who may be surprised like i was this morning :shock:

was ringing carquip(vauxhall breakers) for some bottom arms... an when i told him my corsa sport was on a 1998 he replied with \"the lotus tunned one?\" did anyone know this? apparently its because the earlier corsa b\'s were prone to bad handling...

:clap: well done mr at carquip :thumbs:

It was lotus whihc developed the 16v head for vuaxhall, as far as I\'m aware lotus didn\'t do anything for the sus but someone else may know differently.

The \"sporty\" models got Lotus goodies.

The 1.4 8v (c14se)
The 1.4 16v (x14xe)
The 1.6 16v (c16xe and x16xe)

All the above models with the above engines had \"Lotus\" tuned suspension (Still crap though) and cylinder head modifications.
