Bought a replacement MFD off eBay as mine has gone duff, if I get around to it I am hoping to put in my decent drivers seat soon. Got a few plans for over winter, just need to actually stop using it


Bollocks, things are not going well....it stopped playing CD's today, just spits them out

Wanted to give it a clean today after using it for over a week going to work so it was pretty dirty

Went the whole hog and waxed it













Made one decent MFD out of two bad ones



Car had some shiny kick plates fitted but they where not really my thing tbh so removed them today.

Yeah I do but they are too big to drop it more I ran 40's on my old one and it was spot on

Hopefully new tyres will be happening before next summer

Edit - Here is my old one with 40's on.

There was a local 'Cars and Coffee' meet this morning so decided to take the Corsa this time as the TT got no love last time

Sun was very bright and I only had my iPhone so the pics aren't great but it's looking super clean

Corsa has been stashed away in the garage since the day of my last post, was a nice today so decided to bring it out, pump up the tyres and give it a spin.

Few plans for it this year but the weather is going to have to warm up first

Pictures from today, not been washed since September last year but still looking alright









It will be getting a decent clean in the next few weeks I imagine.

Drove to work in it today and probably will tomorrow.

Only issues currently are a slow puncture on a rear wheel and my CD player still doesn't work but both easily rectified.

Trying to decide where to go with this, the rear drivers corner is a bit of a mess, little bit of rot on the arch and the bumper has been scraped and touched up badly, I think I am going to get this sorted in the next month or so assuming it isn't going to cost to much.

Later in the summer I would like new tyres, coilovers and to refresh all the ball joints, track rod ends etc on the front end.

Currently in full saving mode for a wedding though so don't really want to take the piss spending too much this year, car is going no where so there really isn't that much of a rush.
