Just been searching google image search,
found this car,
looks soooo nice
Corsa SRi, standard, just very very low
I want a corsa like that!
So tempted to buy another one,
Maybe a 1.4 SRi and just slam it like this
Thoughts?
Thats a 3 door, but i would need a 5 door,
Or i might just do somthing similar to that for the astra
Turbo alloys and slam it

Get a Meriva Turbo.
Corsa platform is dead and will be abandoned for the Corsa D.
I take it they'll adopt the numbering scheme for this or change the name completely... Corsa D would get confusing for diesel owners

Correct . Also i wouldnt say its "very very low". Proberbly only on 40mm springs. Its is lowered though
Anyhow, Standard SRi Rims and Deckage is the way forward .

You say you had to get a bigger car for work , work do not make you get a car if you lose you job then you have a 5 door astra for no reason , work should provide you with the correct tools to do your job , if you needed a bigger car to do your job they should have supplied one for you.

Why not buy an old van (escort, astra etc) for under a grand and leave 5 doors to saloon cars, not hatches
