Hey  thought it was about time i posted up about my new car.
Since Ryan decided to break old c5 we thought it would be a good idea to replace it with something i could use as a daily driver for my work as i do silly miles per week so we went for the 1.2 Corsa Limited edition..
Still dont fully understand why he ended it  but stopped trying to understand his logic years ago 
Few days old but started to mod it fairly quickly, Comp MO5 Alloys
Then some FK Coilovers to bring the car down and got the bonnet carbon viynl wrapped, obviously buy the real deal when they start to become available but will do untill then  also de-badged the boot lid
And thats really the car up to date atm on the case of getting a new grill, VXR Interior and hopefully some smoked front lights

really was liking it untill you did that to the bonnet/roof
lovely car though..
i can see you take pride in taking good photos, just a tip, resize your images (a little smaller) they would look a lot sharper
keep the updates coming  ..

looks good but that bonnett will piss you off especially as i know you like to keep you cars clean and the carbon vinyl is a pig to keep looking nice

Ya wee shite my logic is sound
Roof comes painted black standard mate, im over the moon with the bonnet k800 vinyl till they start producing some more real carbon bits for the Corsa D i was surprised at how close it looked minus a gel shine
Full car is a pig to keep clean white cars suck using them daily

Love the wheel choice, I would have a black griffin on the boot though, no badges makes it look too bare

Comps and lowering have made a good difference, just don't like the bonnet at all, just looks crashed and cheapy repaired.

I drove one of these for the first time last night (my brother in laws) and I loved it. smooth, comfy but I was expecting the steering to turn so well....going from a 1997 punto to one of these though was a difference

Looks nice, like the wheels.

Not sure if i like the bonnet.Some of the pics it looks ok but others not so nice.
I think it would look good with the exhaust recess bit done black to match the roof and bonnet.
Oh and you've missed out the wind deflectors from the mod list.
