Great video! Mine is the grey Cavalier SRi, seen in the first few seconds of the vid in the distance (and a few more times in the background!)! First Max Power show I’ve been to, since the NEC in about 2003! Defo be back next year, with some restoration work done and fresh paint!

First vid I've seen on the show that has a proper, close up look at that peach Corsa B. Remember that from like 2011 Mod Nats or whenever it was. Man, Xquisite used to build some properly sick cars! Still looks fresh today 😎 Purple Corsa C looks pretty sweet as well!

@thealchemist638 7 күн бұрын

Nathan has done well to bring the pink Corsa B back from where it was, it was in a bit of a mess stored with windows down so damp had got in etc, only ever did 2 shows back in the day and Modified Nationals was one of them. A shame Xqusite don't produce stuff anymore they were producing some truly epic stuff as you say glad to see a lot more than we think has managed to be saved each year, people dig it back out. The purple Corsa C is owned by a chap called Max and I have to say I really love this build I was always a B man myself so was never a massive C fan but this one is truly done well. Glad you enjoyed.

@@thealchemist638 Thanks for the reply 👍 Yeah I remember only ever seeing it in the flesh at the 1 show then it just vanished, I just figured it had been parted out or stolen or something; was amazed to see it appearing in vids! Fair play to the chap who owns it now for bringing it back to life. Will keep my eye on this channel, best of luck with your own Corsa build (had an arden blue B as my first car so it's always good to see em getting some love). 😎

@thealchemist638 7 күн бұрын

@BeanieRob so Nath bought it from a couple of brothers from what i understand. They also have a couple of other projects tucked away. He has really done it justice in restoring it to how it was. He has more plans for it just from a convo we had recently so watch out for it. My Corsa will be hopefully out next year there's still much to do on the exterior and we will build the interior once that's finished but it is something I've tried to share as I know people enjoy a good work in progress.

Hi there, I have the same in red but they wont turn back on after signalling (indicator left/right), do u hv the same problem?

@thealchemist638 Ай бұрын

No I never had this problem with the static blue coloured DRL units. I now have colour changing ones which allow me to change them so I can pass MOT. My advise here would be to message Autobeam on Facebook and ask if there is a way this can be resolved. Have you tried your standard DRL units back in the vehicle to make sure its not a fault with the vehicle also. Hope you get this sorted.

@MRBO-nw3in Ай бұрын

@@thealchemist638 Tried the standard DRL, it dims when signal and back to full after. Messaged them on their website but nth yet. Thanks for your help. For the color changing one I see review saying the DRL is barely visible in day as the brightness is fairly weak, seems mostly for night use, are urs too?

@thealchemist638 Ай бұрын

Yeah the colours and white are faint in the day but it was only the effect at night I'm after to go with underglow. If your standard units do it then there has to be a fault with van itself surely. Nothing to do with AB. Use Facebook to message them they always suggest.

@truth.hurts... which one are you looking at? Get on Facebook or Instagram on some of the Max Power pages and have a look they seem to be few and far between but people often post up ones for sale, trawl through market place even if you buy a standard one and then build it from there its going to be another saved and loved once more. I've had a soft spot for an Astra D or Astra G for many years and agree lovely cars. Lots of places finding old moulds and remaking the kits now also the scene is very much coming back. It's just knowing where to look.
