Maybe max power could do it themselves?

Buy a cheap tidy corsa and mod it slightly with a 2K budget? Could make a good feature I guess, showing the progression, timeline, etc...?

I know it doesn't look much from standard but my old corsa cost me just under £2000 including the car.

To make a huge difference with £2000.

Drive into halfords. It'll look very different for £2k...

Getting a set of wheels, a bodykit, it sprayed, the suspension, lights (F+R) etc, will come to more than £2k alone. It can be done, but not new parts, would have to be 2nd hand items.

I've got it... How to mod a Corsa with £2k....

1 trip to LMStyling with your Corsa.
x1 2.0 16v engine.
x2 2.0 16v calipers
x1 Bilstien Yellow suspension

It'll look no different, but go much better.

OK, so have a 2.0 16v Corsa, with no brake or suspension upgrades, and live life very much on the edge

got to include the car.

personally, lower it (springs off ebay, do it yourself,)
wheels
de-wiper,
some skirts
de-badge grill
de-wipered,
cheap backbox
gsi spoiler

stuff like that can all be done for cheap, finding bargains and can lead to a nice looking corsa.
