1.2 93 L Corsa B Merit suggestions.

Post by cash567 »

Evening all, here goes for my first post..

Just bought a very tidy 93 Corsa B Merit, very well looked after by vauxhall mechanic and his daughter and I have bought it for my first car, same as she did.
Anyway, I am planning on keeping in the best condition I can but i am looking to make some modifications to it and just wondered what you would all recommend to add to the presentation and power of it. I know a friend who has a corsa spoiler that will fit and he also suggested a new air induction kit for it. I am looking for some white rally type alloys for it also as I want to stay away from the boy racer/chav look as much as possible :)

Any help/suggestions would be brilliant :)

firstly its a 1.2 its never gona b powerfull, but its ur first car so u'll have to put up with it. when u get older thats wen u get the powerful cars lol

as for looks the possibiltyies are endless............
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:

Fair point fella. Just wondering if there was any simple easy things to do like replace filters etc just make it run a bit better, im not looking for it to take on a Mustang or anything...unfortunately.
If in doubt...go flat out!

I've got the same mate.

Induction kit is a complete waste of time.

Keeping it serviced well is the key for low spec cars really. So if it's already well looked after the best bet is stick with improving the suspension and brakes, plus they are things that can be easily moved over to another Corsa at a later date.
