    I'm wondering, are Holden and Opel both used in Australia? As i see both brands being used here on the forum.

    I'll switch back to English cause otherwise @chris_r thinks the Dutch are talking about stealing his Corsa. Just got back from a month in Holland but am glad to be back home.

    Haha, you'd have to find me first. Adelaide's about as much as clue I'll give you. I know if @dutchy managed to steal it, he'd get about 50 metres down the road before he gives in to the urge to pull over to side of the road, lift the bonnet and errr.. If you know dutchy, you know the rest, lol.

    Do you take parts with you because of a price difference or availability?

    Both, or the hard to get parts or sometimes I swap parts like an Australian Holden grill for a Euro Opel grill. All depending on availability weight and size. Obviously I also use the Dutch equivalent of Gumtree (marktplaats)

    You're spot on Chris, given the opportunity i'd be all over that engine literally and physically Click here to enlarge Got my ways to get my hands on that Corsa..... i'd call a certain courier to pick up a parcel on the other side of town and the rest is history
