i'd say with out, cars looking smart though
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!

Same here, gonna wait til the weather's a bit better. Don't wanna bring the car in the garden at the moment as it's like a swamp!

Yeah, I've got to agree with everyone else. I took mine off a few years ago, never regretted it and looks much better! :D
