I modify my corsa as i wouldnt be able to get much insured, when i get something proper for my next car i wont be doing anything to it. Modifying in general is a hobby though, i enjoy it and it makes my corsa stand out from the rest round here.
I'd defo do it all again if i was 17 again, i've enjoyed it.

It's a hobby, to make your car stand out and look better than the rest.

I stick with mine because my dad insures me for nothing and he wont insure me on anything else for a while or ill have to pay myself, so im just making it how i want it, enjoying it then getting a car that doesnt need thousands spending on it to make it look good, drive good, go fast ETC

Yes

Yeh exactly they are the most modified bla bla , meaning theres no scope for doing something original anymore.

Not mocking them or anything , just wondering what I should do.

The reason I modified my Corsa all them years ago I think was cos the car was bought as it was cheap to insure/run at the time...........then I spent a few quid on it, then a bit more, then it just went out of control before I knew it.

Wouldnt do it again!

Yours is pretty original anyway, most people go for the colour code and post 97 bumper straight away. You've kept the bits the most people change. I do like your car

Aye maybe just the power , but the reliability of an engine conversion is worrying.

I never bought a corsa for cheap insurance or anything like that.

When i bought my 1.6 sport, i bought it because i liked it, seen what i could do it and i fancied doing it. Nothing to do with budget etc..

GSi XE because i wanted one for some fun, simple
