looks smart mate but yeah, black or white alloys, lowered and a spoiler. and maybe a badgeless grill will really set it off...........
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

Ahaaha.. tends to be the way lol :)


But tbh, if this is your first car, I wouldn't waste too much money on it. Do a few cosmetic things but wait till your more experienced and then upgrade to a better (more quality) model, then mod the f'ck outta it.

When I get my Corsa, I wouldn't mod it to begin with. But that's just my opinion.



If you're paying for it, I cant see the problem.
