Your car is looking sweet mate. top job!

If you want an alarm I would go for the one I bought if you're on a budget.
I have a compact3000 alarm that i got from motorworld for £30 , it does the job though, its a shock sensor one so i turned the sensitivity all the way up so if someone opens the door or knocks against the car the alarm will go off.
Easy to wire up off the battery and easily mounted aswell.

nice car buddy cant believe you cant drive though bet its aching at you so you can get out and about in it, youll aprecieate it alot more then and i do like white corsas they look oh sooo right keep up the good work buddy and defineatly get an alarm do what i did and get a cheapy alarm and then look out for a clifford matrix rs or similar with the additional extras which in theory make your car security to a similar level as to buying a whole system for around £350 bucks

Cheers everyone! really pleased to see all the positive comments about it

badboy1989, you don't know how much I want to drive it. Sooo excited about it now as i've got exactly 1 month until I turn 17!

mobby, Keep a eye out on ebay. Picked mine up off there for £60 with tyres. Once wrapped in 195/45's they looks ace on corsas

Very nice

You're car has made me think £100 on rear lights could be a good investment, they look wicked on white

It failed needs a new brake pipe and maybe cylinder on the n/s drum as its pissing brake fluid out like wild fire! Luckily that was the only thing it failed on so should be sorted in no time

The work shop guys didnt like it one bit too noisy, too low etc + other unwanted comments. Oh well its my pride and joy, and I love it. Thats all that matters
