Well, I'm back in a Corsa! I've been looking for one for a while now and came across this one on eBay. It's a 1.6 Sport with only 18K from new
I'll let the pics do the talking:
I've got plans for it already:
- Allesios or Softstars ( I dont like white wheels )
- Smoked Depos
- Mudflaps
- Rubstrips back on
- Put on my private plate
Let me know what you think
Ben

Small Update:
Havent really done much in the last month, been concentrating on my Astra as its had some running issues!
Anyway, heres what I have been doing.
Brand new from the dealers,
Mudflaps (front & rear)
Bumpstrips
Also got Smoked Depos
And a K&N panel, picked this up for £5 off of eBay
And some pics of how it is now:
Can just see my Astra in them pics aswell.
Also have new plates on order, Im also trying to get hold of some Astra GSi stepdown/fanblade alloys for it but they seem to be hard to get hold of? Anyone have any/know of any for sale?
All comments welcome
Ben

Got them from Vauxhall mate, I can get you prices and part numbers if you want them? Corsas definately look better with them

Thanks for the good comments peeps.
The suspension is just a Jamex kit, 60R & 40F as said by JedDy.
When I bought the car, the previous owner told me that the car wasnt used for a very long time hence the low mileage, the interior is mint, no wear on the steering wheel at all.
