Only reason i posted up a progress thread of my corsa is that some people, inc. me like to see the progress of a car, then see the finished article.
I love seeing cars all fecked up, then coming out looking

it does seem a bit competative, personally i do my car to my expectations, if people wanna say its crap then thats fine, if people want to praise it then thats a bonus
but yes, some people do get carried away when talking about their own cars

Agreed
Who can fit the biggest wheels (anyone remember when 16"s were the In thing, 17"s were only just starting to be seen).
Now its, how big a wheels can u get under a small car, how high can you make it, how big and mad the kit is, and whats been done that no-one has done before.
Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Anythign over 17" wheels on a Corsa (meanign B here, dunno about C) and your gonna start to get problems.
Small wheels, big engine and subtle styling is the way to go

So why not just do it on a bigger car that has the power and the arches to take big wheels and the big kit?
Why stick massive wheels on a small car?
I know its each to their own, but its not really. I agree, everyone seems to be in competion. One person is even arrogent enough to say his corsa is going be the ebst in the world, i mean, what the fcuk is that about.

I think its up to the person wot they do with their car, if they wanna stick 17's on a corsa 1.0L then let it be, or if someone wants 3-spoke alloys (god help us) then its personal taste. It's all good n well asking peoples opinions but them sorta threads turn into slagging matches and all the person was saying "wot do u fink" yer if its crap then its crap but I fink some peeps bitch way too much!
Rant over

not everyone can afford 'bigger' cars, or the insurance for them either
