Ah ye lol i saw it on cs for sale for £8k and then a month or so ago i was reading a thread about it being on ebay. He got one of his mates or something replying with really childish comments iirc and continued to do so for a few days.

Wasnt aware the guy was on here lol

I don't want to buy it, probably can't afford it lol

I was only interested in knowing as i knew it was for sale and it failed to sell on ebay. Was just wondering what you had in mind, that was all. Not to worry then :)

That looks very tidy and I prefer speedlines on Corsas than Novas lol

Looks really well, wish mine was that tidy.

Joe Richardson
13-03-10, 07:15 PM
looks well :thumb:

Nova's are better thoughlol what does it handle like because my corsa b 1.2 handles ****e it's not even funny :(

Lee H
13-03-10, 07:18 PM
My Corsa B on cheap coilovers handles far better than my Nova with all the good bits on. The wider track makes a difference I reckon.

Mike
13-03-10, 07:20 PM
Corsa B's do handle better then Nova's too IMO.

Even if your comparing standard Corsa to standard Nova!

djbrowney
13-03-10, 07:22 PM
fookin love the car mate !!!

had a nova on g-max lol put it on a corsa and was far better than the nova :(

dj_wudgey
13-03-10, 07:24 PM

Joe Richardson

pmsl well my corsa handles **** compared to my nova,the corsa is standard suspension,the sr is lowered slightly !!!

my corsa does have 13 inch steels aswell lol

Looks very nice, kinda reminds me of mine(minus the speedlines) when I bought it 8 years ago with 20k miles on it. I paid silly money for mine back them. Also makes a change to see a GSi with the proper rear mudflaps on.

Joe Richardson
13-03-10, 09:38 PM
Any inside pics :thumb:

Lee H
13-03-10, 09:50 PM
They look like the Astra mk4 mudflaps everyone fits on Nova's? Never realised they would fit.

smcgsi16v
13-03-10, 10:02 PM
You have to purchase a special bracket kit seperately so they can fit.

Lee H
13-03-10, 10:16 PM
Ahh, guess it's no longer available from Vaux as well?

I bought some normal Corsa ones for the rear of mine but they wouldn't fit. These look much better.

I'm 100% sure oneday i'll love Corsa GSis but for the moment they're just engine doners :p

Yes because most people remove the 1.6 from them and put a proper engine in as small blocks are crap.

Looks good, not often you see clean Corsa GSi's.

Graeme
14-03-10, 06:33 PM
I hate corsa b's but that looks right, I'd only add a set of Morette's and a let if it was mine

It looks like a loved version of Rickardo's

Why don't you show him some of your best modifications Rick, I think it could benefit from a light up teddy and some dayglow paint

I'll have you know Mr Dixon, i have been "Loving " the Corsa all weekend.. Painted the rear beam, undersealed it all and stripped it even further. lol

You can't beat evil teddy's eyes.. I know you want some as well.
