Reminds me of the days when spec lists consisted of splitfire spark plugs and ekotek valves

To redress the balance they did feature an insanely clean satin red Corsa B and that was still a 1 litre. Albeit the cleanest 1 litre engine ever! I think comments from people in a petrol station or at a car show can mean just as much as any feature in a magazine.
I don't buy it in the main as I subscribe to a classic car mag instead, however I did buy the Issue in the spring where my own Corsa was on the 'Facebook'cars page. That was pretty decent!

I have an extremely clean, slightly modified OEM+ style Corsa B, but under the hood hasn't been touch, so bet they wouldn't even look at pictures of it knowing that!!

No point complaining about it online, why not email it in to totalvauxhall.ed@kelsey.co.uk and actually find out?
One thing I will say is that the Corsa B is still the most submitted car, so yes, of course Dan has to turn down quite a few, but it's certainly nothing personal or some kind of slight against the owner.

Normally refers to a car modified using parts from other vehicles from the same manufacturer, other vehicles from the same parent company or genuine accessories.
OR in this case... Speedlines....

More of less what Robin said, it can also be upgrades from other manufacturers and approved 3rd parties.
Like I have a Corsa with Mazda RX8 seats, Irmscher and Steinmetz products. Thats all classed as OEM+ or also called Original Equipment Modified.

Is it not mildly modded but keeping it with the factory fit? I.e. DAB head unit from a higher spec but keeping it flush with your car? - What Robin said.

I class my M3 as OEM+. It looks totally standard and I've bought loads of rare factory options for it and the only thing modified on it is the suspension, exhaust and will do brakes in the future.

I disagree if you have mazda rx8 seats in i do not class it as OEM+
For me OEM+ is (for arguments sake vauxhall) irmscher, vauxhall and steinmetz stuff only. Basically no aftermarket shite its supposed to look like OEM with a bit more hence the +.
