Right so a while since i owned a corsa, felt i needed another...
So the Mrs bought me this for Christmas.






Corsa sport X14XE rio verde green R reg, 115k
Nice clean shell, small bits of rust on the boot nothing major.
Already got it on a new set of temp wheels, not sure if to keep them or not (with new tyres and painted)
Alreday lowered 60mm on jamex shocks and springs
3" backbox, middle pipe, and new cat sportex

Future plans
New tyres and paint wheels
front bumper to replace the one with morrette holes
paint the bumper tops and arches gloss black or anthracite
paint roof rails as above
Depos
MHWs
possibly de bump strip, but may paint them as above
bigger brakes
engine conversion - not sure what yet
