Maybe hes likes the car the way it is?
Im a sheep,i love the gsi kit and speedlines/softstars.
But i really dont see whats wrong with this corsa apart from the price?, its nice for what it is? hes being diffrent than all the sheep.I wreckon hes done a top job for an over the top kitted car.id happily drive that.

The price is fairly reasoable considering as it has a £20k re-trim which rivals what you would see in a Ferrari.

because corsas are wank to start with anyway. i say that despite owning a couple. this is the first time ive seen a link to a corsa with a bodykit/ anything apart from gsi kit and speedlines that people havnt called a shed. had someone ask my mate the other day if my car was a gsi or a 1.2 with the usuals. not really bothered by this sort of thing most the time but after seeing it time and time again on here pissed me off a little.
dont get it why putting a type r badge on a honda or say a gt turbo kit on a na renault 5 is gay but a gsi kit on a corsa is.
everyone who comes on the site with a bodykitted corsa etc is chased off with pitched forks. sooner or later no-one will have any knoledge of feckall and all will be paying ripoff uk tuners copious amounts for gsikits wheels and dreaming of 1.4's on throttle bodies. savage!
rant over dont wona turn another thread into an argument

Angry But your dead right. If it isn't "in the trend" on here, its not cool
Heres C10 a while back. Bearing in mind its a combat kit, check the join lines at the bumpers etc..
Almost as spotless as Craig Mays was

why would you have "respect" for someone who has thrown silly money at a car especially a vauxhall? to me its stupid as there just money pits. lesson learnt

little story for ya Ben-ev
the car was done buy owner 1, with the interior and combat kit and 18's
owner 2 recked it and added a 1600 engine
owner 3 added new styling and wheels
ok so owner 1 spend way to muchos on the interior, but it was done when carisma was a bit less "busy with pimp ma ride" so it probs cost a bit less than stated
owner 2 brought it for about 5k two years ago after it was featured in tv
he just made it a bit of a shed tbh
owner 3 sorted the probs out and finished it agian
not that you care, but its up two the owner if they wana spunk money in to a corsa, if i still lived at home and had no responsibilities i would spend out on either my corsa or i would have brought a corsa vxr on tik

i did live at home and had no responsibilities and spunked a bucket full of cash on a corsa and am still paying the tick which is why its a leasson learnt. i do like the car its super just didnt wont to see it go down under the usaull speedline rant.
just to throw a spanner in does the C on the seats stand for chav?

i think it luks good for a kitted corsa, it would look spot on with a normal Gsi spoiler on instead of a Pram handle like spoiler on it

It's almost as bad as mine then?
Another rant thread, rant the style not the work done on the car. It looks A1 inside and out.
Might not be done to peoples tastes but i'd like to see people who say its rank do better IMO...

I dont know why people slate modded cars so much - if they are really chav and badly put together then fine but that car is immaculate inside and out, loads of work done and plenty of time put into it, defo pays off.
Like mine - i spent a fortune on that - paid off though winning me shows, ma features all over europe, getting paid to go round europe where as if i had "speedlines and a gsi kit" it would have got me nothing put shit off the local cops for havin wot they no doubt see as a chav car.............
