Well ive been meaning start one of these for ages now!
Started life way back in Sept 2003 wen i turned 16!
£450 got me totally standard red 1.2 8v corsa with 40k miles!
2 days later i was e-baying for kits etc plans were as follows!
Full custom 1 piece kit, using golf arches, astra front and corsa kit, fully smoothed and fitted, Custom 1 off Dtm Mirrors moulded into the car, Saxo spoiler moulded into a corsa gsi spoiler, smooth boot and badboy bonnet, custom 1 off door handles, Full respray in rage green silver riding on 17s!
heres soom pics along the way!
finally after 6 months i was left with something like this!
but then i wasnt happy after a few month use
Things had to be changed, wasnt custom enuff and had been copied almost identially by a local boyracer
so plans were!
19s with coilovers
rear light transplant
blueflame custom exhaust
lots of bodywork changes
a full fibreglass interior remake! dash doors roof etc!!
so anyways its been around 2 years since its been off the roads!
and its finally nearly ready!!
just a few bits and bots and an MOT and its dun!
pics to follow of the car in its nearly finished status!

Certainly a lot better than it was before Loving it
I don't think they were really rhumors though that it was up for sale, seeing as you did have it up for sale at one stage
