Well after my old sport decided not to play ball come MOT time I gave up on it and sold the parts that I had been sourcing for many years 
Nealy how it was at the end (had standard rear lights)
Soooo with the cash in my pocket I went and got a new car..
Result: White corsa Gsi
Cant really think about plans at the moment as I have no money..but my exhaust will be coming off my sport, and maybe my coilovers and janspeed manifold. Plan on spraying the Gsi wheels and adding a bit of funk 
Other than that i will be keeping it clean, undersealing it soon and servicing regular
Keep tuned for some slow updates

Put a few things in off my old car. Small areal, genuine vauxhall mats and black and white leather gear gator. Will get pics later.
Exhaust will be going on soon as I have just taken it off my other car.
What do people think of puting the smooth post 97 rear on the gsi? Obviously sprayed white? Or should I keep it original?

Well long time since I updated this. Fitted a few bit and bobs and also fitted my exhaust of my old sport. Bit of a cunt as its 1 piece from the CAT so have to drop the rear beam.
After a bit of chopping and grinding and matching bits I finally got it on.
Sounds very nice indeed and will be even better when I get my decat redone.
No pics yet as my laptop is being fixed so will update with pics soon.

Want some casearos but got no money and dont plan on doing alot to it apart from keeping it clean and serviced and little touches. Going to refurb the wheels in anthracite soon and underseal the bottom to protect for the winter.

Broke a fog light today. It was cracked when I bought the car and today it must have given up because I didnt hit anything but half the glass is missing. So now on the lookout for a new drivers side if anyone has one.
Also got 2 new front tyres and got the weights put inside for when they get refurbed
