Girlfriends buying this corsa... i know its not to everyones taste, and a bit tacky for my liking, but she loves it so there we go! and it was a decent price.










So there it is. Now - anybody know what front and rear bumper it has on it? Also any suggestions for affordable mods. I was thinking new side repeaters either blue or clear, sideskirts, m3 mirrors, maybe new rear lights. Could do with lowering as well but prob outta her budget at the moment.

to be honest its only a 1.5 diesel, but i drove it as well and thought it was fine. Couldn't believe it was meant to be 18 seconds 0-60. I normally drive a sport which does 10 secs, and i fort the diesel was fine. Nice comfy ride compared to her mini anyway.

at the min i have in my 5 door, ICE,interior done, and 17s, lowerd, zorst, M3s, de badged, clear side repeaters, colour coded handles, its flame red. take pics once zorst and springs are fitted, next up is tints and spoiler, then thats me done for now and then its body kit and full respray, custom wide arches, to look like

same as this, but with 17" masitaly vt5 wheels, merseyspeed front bumper, panique skirts, and single 3.5" exit scorpion back box, and its flame red,





also without the morretts abd just badboy brows smoothed in not curved extension on bonnet, also M3 mirrors instead of DTM.

thing is its an L reg 80k miles, woman owner b4 tho, but its gathering some bits of rust, i hope will get fixed with a respray when kitted, do u think its worth doing it to this car of that milage, maybe get a bigger engine dropped in after a couple of years? or just keeping things i can move onto a newer corsa in about a yera when i have more money to buy 1. it runs real well, looked after, inside is spotless

normal 5 door spoiler, with 106 aggressor spoiler made to fit onto it, as below,


so what do u think ? giving the millage, age, bits of rust, you think i should go ahead or do what i said above, just keep to getting mods i can easily move onto another corsa when i got the mney to sel and buy a new 1, shift overa ll my boot build, interior stuff, wheels, springs ect, basically just dont kit it ? comments, im really stuck as to what to do.

my current boot build,
