Yes I am there's something that's doing my head in. I go out everyday in it but no longer feel that specialness. It's like I'm ready for a change but not sure what to do.
I'm not selling it but want more out of the old gal but don't know what to do! Not xeing as I've been out in quite a few and it still lacking, also would like a LET but I want a car I can use day to day oh and cornering (v6 RJ is well out) so suggestions before I scrappage it for a new motor.

Cheers David

Can use a LET day to day if you do it properly and keep the power sensible.

As Lee said Dave, mine was a daily. Do it, it will put a grin on your face everyday. :thumb:

Best thing I ever did was get rid of mine if im honest.

Miss hooning it down lanes & getting air time, as its just nowhere near as fun in a 1.5tonne Corsa but other then that, yeah best thing I ever did.

Worst thing I ever attempted lol which was a contributing factor of me breaking mine.

I just got lazy if Im honest & couldnt be fcuked messing anymore. Nothing was a challenge anymore, i knew every nut & bolt, every size of them etc etc I just wanted something new, a new challenge so to speak.

Raise the suspension & run narrower wheels/tyres. That will put a whole new spin on things. Then drop it & put 15's back on for the summer.
