Had it on the road a week now. Gave it a wash today.
Shit iPhone pics
Needs a lambda sensor. And going to give it a buff this weekend and will get some better pics. Then wheels refurbed when I get time.
Great on fuel, 220miles to £30

This ones doing great. Even though it does need the lambda sensor. Driving very sensible like, but it's a 1.4 so pointless trying to drive fast cause its just not fast

Always liked this colour.
Why not just get the Eibach Pro Kit if you want to lower it on the cheap?
Oh, and I thought my 1.4 was horrible on fuel for how slow it was. Struggled to see 33mpg with mixed driving.

Budget coilovers will be fine, and aren't much more than springs anyway.
Yeah John that's old engine. This is twinport one.

Not really. Just fancied a diesel for when i do want to do some miles. Plus the torque is better and what im buying will be twice as powerfull than my corsa when im done with it and still return 50mpg.
