Corsa 1.2 Club

Post by Adster »

Heres my V reg (1999) Corsa Club 1.2 16V my dad bought me for my 18th for £495.
It had low milage when i got it (36,000) and the women who previously owned it didn't really take that much care of it. (been in and out of the garage 6 times in 4 months with lots of problems including recently failing its MOT on the CV boot :( )

Image

Currently planning on debading the car, getting a new driver door wingmirror (match the car colour), getting some decent but cheap alloys and a full Edge speaker system. (already have an Edge EDB12A 900W sub but no pictures yet)

Suggestions are welcome for anything else that could be done
