Hi, I bought my Vauxhall Corsa GLS 1.0 12v in april this year.
87k on the clock
Here is how i got the car
it stayed like this for a while.
i then added my sound system
and recently put some acousic carpet over the box which makes is look loads better i think
a mate of mine swapped me this ripspeed HU for my old Mutant one
I also added some GSI seats
It is now lookin the same just about, from when i bought it
i also had a go at de-badging my car but it wen horribly wrong
 so im gunna have to get the bits sprayed where my badges where lol
what do you guys and girls think ??

well i aint made much of a change to the car but i have just tidied it up abit. last saturday i was around my mates house and my car was parked outside of his house, and when i got up in the morning i realised that some lil twat had drove into the back of my car and smashed my rear light and fooked my bumper up. and cos my step-dad pays for the insurance he decided to cancel it the day afta this happend  so car is currently SORN and will remain off the road for a few weeks untill i get it all sorted out. here are some pictures.
i know that it needs lowering, thats one of the 1st things to do on my list. exhaust is blowing from the manifold.
i could do with a new engine as mine is about to seize up as it has an oil leek and it aint had any oil in it for a while
hopefilly will all be sorted in the next few weeks

i have sorn it because it runs out of tax today and i aint got a job atm to get insurance or tax lol, so its just guna stay off the road till i get the cash to insure it and tax it. And im keeping the seats in because i like them lol, and they hold ya in much more than the gls seats, especially when your going round corners lol
the grill came with the sub, its a JBL GTO 1200 i have got a new sub box made with another sub, sounds amazing, but, there is that much bass it has broken my box
