Had this nearly a year now not done nothing modification wise not had the money but its still a smart little thing good runner done quite abit of work to it.
Since ive had it ive done oil, coil pack, crank sensor, wheel bearings, MAF, spark plugs,
Just put it through mot had some more work done to it cost me a good 130 quid to get it through had all track rods done and suspension ball joint.
Rare colour dont see many of these driving around rare occation when you do haha
Nearly done 100k and still going strong!
Luckily there wheel trims not alloys! its only bad coz its rubbed against a concrete block againts the bottom of the fence 
What you think? Might be selling soon if the right car comes along at the right price, But if not what should i do to it haha

Nice car. Lovely colour.
Dont debadge it, ruin it imo. Maybe lower it but not to OTT, and yes take the wheel trims off.

I would get rid of the clamp on tailpipe cover and debadge it.
I'd also save up for some lowering springs and 15s... I had a Corsa B, a Breeze also, from brand new back in 1998 and it didn't exactly handle well on standard suspension and skinny 13" wheels

Looks clean, good colour. I'd definitly get it lowered, surely you could find a set of springs for little money? Thats where I'd start.

The paint work looks mint.
I would get some 15 inch alloys and lower it 40mm.

98 corsa 8v on 100k, will full service history, tax and mot then I would say £450 - £500
But without all that and just a 98 corsa on 100k then £300 seems fair I think.

£600 would have been more than fair, shame! We paid £500 for my brothers 1.0 breeze with 26k on the clock, 1 owner, that was 3years ago.
