Heres my lastest B, a 98 1.4 16v Sport in Brocade Yellow, My 3rd Corsa. Bought it to turn into a quick wee track car as my everyday 06 Vectra CDTi just isnt exciting enough! this is no show car! Infact its needs a good bit of TLC!! so here we go...
The BEFORE pics!
Wish i had of taken pictures of the front seat area, after spending all day on the interior, you would think my hoover swallowed a small white dog!! the hair was serious! but fortunately myself and sweet have it mint now!
48hrs in... and its cleaned up nicely... still to be clayed, corrected, jetsealed and waxed... but not today! get some wee bits touched up and get it all minted properly! Tailight changed and interior stripped and nearly mint! 
Now who here has referred to Halfords as "Halfrauds"?? I have... until this wee deal popped up, Mr Halford... I love you! 
These Babies Came to a grand total of... £29.37
More bits now arrived for the Corsa, Also fitted an Inlet Manifold Powerbox, Thanks to Paul from Bangor!! Top Job and well recommend for any one looking to really sharpen up there Sport!! Car pulls the whole way through the revs now with no hesitancy!! Awesome Job!
Ok, bits I have received since the last update,
Modified Inlet Manifold and Powerbox (Fitted)
16" Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 (Fitted)
Spax Coilovers
Janspeed Exhaust and Decat
Debadged Grille
Dirty Throttle Body
Soon made clean with sime Carb Cleaner
Fitting the Inlet...
The New Wheels
Next things to be done is to fit, Exhaust, Pads & Discs, New Power Steering Pump and Alternator Belt and Handbrake Cables ...
Now Lowered

I should have perhaps realised if I had looked for a spoiler.
Don't put a spoiler on. They look better without them

Update...
Got rid of the Inlet as could never get the car to run right with it!!
So its back to the original inlet, now with NGK Iridium plugs & Splitfire Leads, some of you may have seen it at PVS 09... We all made the trip from N.I.
heres some new pics... spoiler still to be fitted ffs!!
