Corsa-B.uk - Vauxhall, Opel and Holden Corsa B Owners Club

Just a new member on here recently and have just bought a 2000 reg corsa b 1 litre after writing off my previous car which was a clio. Had big plans for my clio but due to rubbish road conditions it was wrote off. Had to find a car that was cheap to insure and cheap too buy and a general run about to get to college and back and getting around places and found a corsa advertised that seemed too fit what i needed perfect. I was a bit unsure at first with it only being a 1 litre but after looking about this forum and online searches i decided it has alot of potential and a cheeky wee engine conversion will go down nicely once i have enough saved up. After xmas i plan to buy alloys for it as i came with steelies and trims and then coilovers and get it lowered.
So far all i have done is put an induction kit on it and plan to de badge the next dry day.

Good points..

The car came with 70k miles

MOT

Immaculate condition through out , no rust , sratches , dents etc

Engine runs smooth and sounds not bad with induction kit

Only bad points..

No tax

Tracking needs done

Dont like the steering wheel on it so bought a steering wheel from a corsa c to put on for 99p

Its a 1 litre but its cheap on insurance and too run and will do until it gets redtop'd

Im un sure on how to upload pictures could anyone please explain how to

Cheers and all comments welcome

welcome, sounds like a gd car you've got there. to upload pics. upload your images to photobucket.com and copy and paste the IMG code into your post.

Sounds a good tidy buy looking forward to the pictures!

Picture of it sitting on my drive way yesterday once i got it home



Got a picture of induction kit fitted



Engine bay needs a realy good clean up and im planning on doing it at the weekend and get some more pics

Looks smart mate give under the bonnet a spring clean and she'll look a babe nice and tidy though fella..
any plans for her in the near by future?

cheeers mate ye will do ill get sum gunk onto it and it will be clean , after xmas planning on getting black 15" alloys and getting it lowered 40mm then possibly a back box then eventually look into getting a c20xe engine for it.

Wind deflectors will be on order at the weekend and hopefully my new steering wheel will come and ill get it fitted along with the tracking and wheel alingment sorted

Right came to a decision and on order after christmas will be -

. Black 15'' alloys , havent decided what type yet
. 40mm lowering springs
. Sportex backbox 3" tailpipe
. EBC discs and brake pads
. Hopefully source some leather calibra front and back seats

Also cars getting booked into the garage hopefully for next monday too get the tracking done , its becoming a joke on how bad it is and also needs a new tyre but hopefully it will last untill i order alloys

looks sound m8
my misses goin fetch her red 1 2moz, most of them out there are pink,
but your looks a minter

cheers man , im gona wax and polish it the next dry day

decided on what alloys i want - team dynamic monza 15'' in black , wanted them for my old clio and decided they would look good on the corsa aswell

Had to take induction kit off as it was killing the MAF sensor , origanol airbox has been put back on and now going to buy a panel filter
