I've Sold the Corsa

Post by Stuart_SRI »

I brought my Corsa in July 2004

It was a standard 1.4 SRi 16v, the twin cam engine that I spent a fair time trying to find.

First off came a set of 16inch multispoke rims


Followed by window tints, a set of smoked rear lights, and a set of smoked side repeaters


BPJ Bodyworx received her for a few days, and removed the red SRi strip and fitted a set of combat side skirts




I stripped out the rear and and fitted a reasonable sound system


BPJ Bodyworx sorted me out a bumper and gave the bonnet the bad boy treatment


But it was such a poor fit I decided to have the bumper and arches flushed into the wings, and have the corner splitters moulded into one single splitter



I then had her lowered for PVS. 40mm front and rear on G-MAX springs

But then disaster. I came across a road that was being resurfaced, and the car grounded out, causing £300 worth of damage to the bodywork

I had it repaired and then decided it was time to move away from the corsa

This is how she was sold

So there u go. Thats my corsa, all done and dusted :(

your looking at around £250 mate, but it varies from shop to shop.

if its really cheap, ask questions about the quality of the work!
