Can't help but ponder over how it would look with wind deflectors on it.

They seem to 'finish off' a lot of cars though, just thought they'd look quite good on yours.

Car has gone:

Well after a great few years, lots of money and man hours, my Corsa Turbo has now gone to another owner. I had the Total Vauxhall shoot on Saturday which went really well. I've had a peek at the pics and they look amazing. Totally over the moon with how the turned out. The chap came and collected it on Sunday night and I bid farewell I know I will have many "Why on earth did you sell it" questions but I have my reasons and they're valuable IMO. I always said once I had a feature then I'd sell and thats happened now. Sad times but keep your eyes out for it in Total Vauxhall as I'll be a very proud man then.

I'll end with the first and last pics I took of it. Bye bye GSi.......

Final Update:

Well after 2 years, countless man hours and ££££'s of pounds, I finally got my Corsa GSi Turbo in Total Vauxhall. I had the photo's took back in June and its finally in the shops now! I am so so happy because it was what I working towards and always wanted to build a mag worthy car and I did it
Here's a few crappy pics but please pick it up, have a read and let me know what you all think of the write up etc. It really has an awsome story behind the feature; "If Vauxhall had made a Corsa B Turbo in 1993, this is what it would've been like" and I'd like people opinions on the car. Cheers!

Well i was with my dad at the front of the cue, and while waiting we decided to go look at the cars in the cue haha, you and "Pagey" were at the front of about 20 corsas lol. You'd probably remember my dad if anything skinhead loads of tattoos haha. Was 2 years ago in june so doubt you'd remember still :L

Na I don't remember that mate. Had so many people comment on it's height but I seem to remember one lad at PVS walking past pointing and saying to his mates "that's how low I want my Corsa"
Yeh the new owner is a user on here, not very regular though.
Cheers to everyone for the comments. Means a lot
