My Second Car/Corsa

[Grant L Walsh]

same, especially the ones that don't fit properly. atm I got thick plastic ones which are ideal for winter snowy conditions but I can't have one in the drives side because it restricts my accelerator pedal from going all the way down :/

i did have they cheap nasty halfords ones but my feet kept getting caught on them so got 4 pound asda ones hahaha

[Grant L Walsh]

Hey thats a good idea actually, have some crap cheap ones for when I go to work and have my proper Vauxhall ones for weekend and that

[jordyp]

yeah pricer is doing that with his vauxhall ones.

another thing i wanted to know, would an ELECTRIC Clock speedo with a rev counter work on my car which didnt come with a rev counter. It came with an electric (NOT CABLE) speedo. I hope this makes sence.

[PRICER]

its a 1L isnt it? if so yes they will BUT you need to make sure you get the 1L corsa dials as they are a different 'code' so the speedo will read correct, pm duncanpound on here he used to have about 3 spare.

[Grant L Walsh]

thanks a million mate, as he still got any as i am interested and will pm him for a quote if he still got any. thanks alot

Now I am abit suprised and p***ed off by this. Now does every one know that advert shown on TV saying if you want to know everything about your car, you txt your reg to 83600 and they send you 3 txts, 1 about how many owners, colour changes and has it been stolen, the 2nd is about any claims made on it and the third, how much its worth with 120000 on the clock, thats private, trade-in, auction, dealer and how much it was new.

Everything was fine on my txt BUT it says the car had a massive crash on the 16th of March 2006 and it wasn't back on the road till the 3rd of June 2006. Apparently it was a Cat C write off and the whole front was caved in

The garage I bought it off never told me about this!!! I have looked all alround the car, even underneath and everything seems to be how it should be and drives like my old corsa Soo it must have been repaired properly BUT still pissed off the garage didn't tell me about this!

[jordyp]

is there nothing in the papers with the car about it? maybe a reciept or something. theyll be a way to find out what actually happeneed etc. im gonna try that now haha.

[PRICER]

orrr take a look at your V5 documentation and then take a look at the chassis number on the plate on your dashboard and the plate in your footwell and see if all three are the same, as what they might have done is just shell that car into another car instead of repairing the damaged corsa.

[Grant L Walsh]

I shall check all that later, I know that the badge in the window and on the front bracket, the V-number is the same, haven't checked the footwell yet. Also yes I shall be going through all of the paper work today

[jordyp]

i checked my car on that 83600 and mines came back perfect except the price if i sell it private at 140000 haha

[paige1992]

looking nice that dude, you going debadge it?

[Grant L Walsh]

maybe but not atm as just baught an IRMSCHER badge for the rear to replace the 12V badge. Anyway a lil update, baught some fli speakers for the front and fli tweeters for the tweeter holes. Sadly I baught the wrong size, I baught the 5inch not the 6inch soo the mid-frequency speakers didnt fit in the adapters soo had to improvise and just got tem to fit. They look alright but when I buy the 6inch, i said my girlfriend could have them lol.
Also I have painted my inside door handles and tweeter housing part silver. All pics will be uploaded in next post
