It's not chavvy, it's standard. If standard saxos are chavvy because some people who own them are chavs, then standard corsas are chavvy.

rofl I was saying more about the gold colour being chavtastic bling bling. Go to the Argos website and search "Chav", what are your first results?
BTW, I actually like the colour of the car.

Surely dropping it on its arse ruins the decent handling that these cars have?

Looks nice just get a set of HR lowering springs (just need the two) then lower the rear torsion bar.
Make sure when you lower the rear torsion bar its done properly as it can affect the geometry of the car.
Also stock grill is miles better than any aftermarket tat. A mate of mine had the same colour as yours with a metalic anthrcite VTS alloys, Anthracite rubbing stips and slammed and my god did it look the nuts.
great fun to drive aint they
