yer a let or xe would be nice but i dont want to throw anymore money at it to be honest that can be up to the next owner, i mean for the price im looking for it (1.9k) plus a let conversion (1k) could have a very clean very fast car for 3k which is bloody nothing..

its fine over speedbumps mate, doesnt catch one bit but thats down to having a custom exhaust to get that clearance

lol, there on another corsa now..

and the leathers are easy to fit, the fronts just bolt straight in but you need to put the leather rear onto a corsa 60/40 split..

Looks nice, very low, how much were the wind deflectors from vauxhall if you don't mind me asking, and don't suppose you have the part no for them ??

I don't think some of the judgemental stuff on here is fair. That car looks cool. Nice in clean, low and with some tidy wheels on it. Bet you would have plenty fun trying to drive everywhere without lifting off the throttle. I remember back to having 59 bhp and loving everyone of em lol :'-)

Slammed was amusing at the time

Cheers

looks good mate.its minted

if it had a 1.6 sport id pay 1900 for it but think ur askin a bit much for it at that price only being a 1.0

compare both pics standard and modded.....uv only lowered it and put wheels on it and a back box.

still a really nice looking corsa tho, im a fan (Y)
