no i mean find another corsa c
measure the distance between the two end parts of the rear beam "the bit that looks like tubing" "between the very badly drawn arrows "
then measure his
if there is a difference "ie the distanceo on his is smaller/greater" then the rear beam is bent

Jas go to http://www.simpson-salvage.co.uk/item.php?t=B&makemodel=Vauxhall&catcode=&trimlevel=&fueltype=&pics=pics&orderby=MakeModel&t=B&value=111447
this is near York and they have a corsa C silver back bumper! also rear end untouched so you may be able to get the hub etc for cheap!
