I like this a lot!
very understated and should be a proper bit of fun

Out of interest when you sell what you looking for?

Wasn't feeling the new front end unti l I saw the pics wit hthe Comp's fitted, makes it look much much nicer

Very cool car to be fair, looks tidy and not to bad as a sleeper, most folks would expect it to be a 1.2...! Should paint an SXi badge black and stick it on the boot just for effect

Get some pics emailed in to Total Vauxhall bet you could scroe a feature

do it mate! lol you can use an astra sri turbo and zafira gsi aswell (same engines) also the newer astra and zafira vxr engines but they are selling for silly money.

Got mine through yesterday - good feature and well deserved imo. Nice to see a fairly different looking Corsa these days!

Congrats

Super nice wheels dude, so curious - was this car originally a GSI/vxr? I have never seen a 3 door version of this opel corsa.

How low is that, mm wise?

It's an SXi mate, roughly about 100-120mm I'd say

Been a while since I've been on! Will do a little update tomorrow
