I did miss the Calibra when i sold it - but i really enjoyed my Corsa GSi, which then i sold to muppetsport to dump the LET in. Bought a Cav Turbo liked it - but spent so much putting it right i was fighting a constant battle.
Now i own the newest probably most reliable car i will ever own - i love it to pieces dont get me wrong but it doesnt look like it "has" purpose.
Yes i know ive ripped the guts out of it and actually made it look like a merit - but the GSi "looked" purposeful. You could tell it wasn't a run of the mill Corsa.
But the sport just looks like a 1.2 with a spoiler dumped on it.
I really resent the fact Vauxhall didnt make more of an effort with the styling of the Sport in all fairness - even though i love the car.
But i really miss the whoossshhhh of the turbo and literally showing new cars a clean set of heals with a 12 year old Cavalier.
Im not going to sell the Corsa and yes i could dump a let in it - but i dont have the money to do so and this car HAS to last me as a house is getting nearer.

Must be a strange dropping from a LET to an X16XE!
Anymore progress with your Corsa? e.g. new wheels?

Ollie it will break my heart to sell it, but i must move onto something more grown up capable of long journeys and 4x4
Im not going to say what it is yet as i havnt purchased one and it wont be for a couple of months but it is going to be one of 2 different cars, but i need to get rid of it as its a money pit

I love cars and i really want a Monaro.. but guess what.. lack of cash..
When your 17 pass yoru test, start insuring, taxing, moting, and running a car you'll find out the hard way..
until then you know fuckall so shut the fuck up and get back to school
