 go for too much money compared to how much I can get these decently refurbed by Tom, plus the tyres are all near enough brand new. PLUS I am hoping to get a new van next year and move out, so car is least of priorities for spending money on!
Agreed it would look ace though.

I personally prefer those wheels to the d90s or anthracite speedlines tbh. I think they suit the corsa b really well

nice one rich, car looks good as it is but undoughtedly (sp) its going to look super ace when you give it a propper detail..
Tom how long has that 407 been in your workshop... Anything changed on it since i last saw it, with the arch extensions and the bear metal look?

Cheers all!
TBF, it won't look much different once I've machined it! Phil had it detailed soon after the respray so it's not that swirled. Gave it a quick hand polish and coat of wax in the pics and it looks fine. Paint has a great depth to it.
One of the main things I want to sort out on it is the gear linkage as I sound like a fooking learner driver in it sometimes It is partly a case of getting used to it, but I'm sure it can be bettered

Ah so this is it then.Ive always liked this Corsa.Nice one Rich.
I think it looks spot on the way it is but as OJC said some Speedline's in the same colour would look sexual.Also a new steering wheel is a must IMO.
But Hey it's your car and if your happy the way it is then that's cool.Enjoy.
I really fancy another Corsa B,Either a GSI or XE in the future........?
You forgot to mention the Bonnet Struts
