Bought it standard in March 08...
Then de-badged it, popped on the new grille, smoked repeaters, rears and fronts, 2.0 astra gsi brakes, and lowered 60mm....
Then in April finally got the plates on and got a temp back box til i get some cash for a magnex...
Gave it a clean today and took some shots with my bro's corsa using the new nikon d40 (still getting used to it!)......
Off to Greece next week, so once were back and got some more cash together will get some coilovers cause its just not low enough, mudflaps, light smoke tint, and wheels when i eventually decide what to go for
Future mods include semi smooth boot and extended bonnet

does look tidy; corsas really seem to suit 3 spokes to be honest, which is strange but it just works!!

To be honest I've looked at this a bit and I just think it looks proper nice (bar the yellow brakes lol) - subtle and smooth and near standard, it's the future
So taking some of my fancy bits on and having it looking standard on some 3 spokes again I think. I liked it best a month after I had it, so back to it's roots.
Car looks spot on, top work

Well after spending a fortune on holiday we were trying to save a little before treating the corsa to anymore goodies.... but I couldnt help myself...
Bought some mudflaps, found a punto wiper in the scrappies and purchased a new magnex backbox for now until next month when we'll get rest of exhuast system and some bits of bodywork touched up.
Please with the result for now though! Thanks to other half for fitting!
