Ok i got this idea from the fast and modified magazine topic and the argument about the "best Scottish Corsa" topic!
What do you call a modified motor? I aint asking outta stupidity cos everyone has their own opinion! Is a modded motor one with big massive wide arches and a big mental kit with huge wheels exhaust and amounts of power? or is your idea of modifying something subtle?
All Max Power cars that have featured on the cover of their mags for the last ten years have been pumped up on more steriods than the british athletics team! What does it take to get a cover car that hasn't got a big kit? It has to be incredibly fast (i.e 318kph Jap skyline going thru a tokyo tunnel) why??
What would you call a nicely modified Motor and what styling do you prefer?

I like something subtle with one-off mods that is one step ahead with a nice lump under the bonnet

well i reckon my ideal modified motor deffinately has to have some unseen bodywork it cant be sh*tlooking like the delta kits (except the veccy GSi lookalike bumper thats smart) it has to suit the lines of the car, theres gotta be some panel work like flushed tailgates (without moving taillights) bonnet vent, tints wheels that match the car not too big not too small! well tuned exhaust! the engine doesn't have to be big just well looked after and tuned not popping and farting, and it has to have a major ice install! not after much am i??

yeah it has got to be smooth sublte changes. none of this jap style kingdom kits pish. Not one for big wheels either, would go above 16's on a corsa or saxo.
the only front bumper i liked when i has my corsa was the rs/ms designs one cos it was smooth.
its got to be smooth!

hav too agree with kenny! tams corsa is deff one of the nicest ones ever. But dav ure corsa looks amazing aswell!! really nice subtle changes.
If i had it i would colour code, smoothed tailgate, smoothed rear bumper, fk/dietrich front bumper, badboy bonnet, and ms designs spoiler

DONT sell it dav you will deffo regret it, all you have to do is do some of the mods that people here have suggested and if you want more power later on then just have a C20 XE fitted which will make it faster that the 106 gti, paxo vts and the insurance aint that expensive either, bout the same as both the cars i've mentioned.
