Well after spending a over a year greiving the mistake of selling my loon and then continuing to whore through cars like there was no tomorrow haveing had 2 106's, a mk3 golf gti, a vento, an astra and a corsa gsi, iv finally got over the fact im a f***ing idiot for selling it lol. so with a 262 mile move from the south east upto the north east and trying to afford a 1.8 sri astra and a flat, i decided i best get something cheaper so i got myself another corsa, its going to be a slow project as money is tight but hey, thats life.

its a corsa sxi 1.2 16v, and before anybody says it, no im not keeping the rear lights cos theyre bloody awful, just need some spare cash to go get some origionals, also need to lower it properly as the goon who had it before has badly cut the springs and it is currently bounceing on the bump stops and sitting about half an inch lower on the passenger side.
