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

Hi all, I'm warren from South Wales. New to the forum and thought I'd get a little thread going on a project I've just bought.

This is my first proper project, I've had about 20 cars in the past 8 years but none that will sit in the garage and get full attention and not worry about it getting ruined from work ect!

This is what I'm currently driving...



My astra g van workhorse. Has a few gsi bits but nothing special but goes from a-b!


Right onto the B... I picked this up a week or so ago for £70...





Pics taken by previous owner and don't have the wheels now.

It's a 1.2, has a backbox and poo rear lights. But it won't be staying like that for long!

I have pretty big long term plans, firstly it will be a big tidy up. It's been sat for about a year so needs attention! Hopefully I'll be ending up with an engine conversion - money depends on what it will be - but turning it into a minter will be first. I'm hoping to renew/upgrade everything I can.

Thats all for now, hoping to get started as soon as this weather shifts!

Thanks for reading!

Welcome mate:)

Car looks clean and plans sound good, looking forward to seeing it done

Cheers mate, they're old pics, not quite as clean now lol. Can't wait to get started on it now! Gonna have to clean the garage out and get it in there I think

Welcome mate not bad for what u paid and sounds like u no what u want to do

Yeah been looking for a cheap enough car for a while and this one fitted the description!

Does anyone know if the interior is standard? It doesn't look very 'base model' lol

Looks like the sport seats

There from a post 97 sxi

Ahh nice, I'll have to have a proper look around it soon to see if I can find any more goodies lol

Just looking through old pics and found one of my old C 1.8 Sri! God I miss that car!

I wanted to buy it back but the boy I sold it too rolled it

Dude that's a shame looked nice but i ain't a fan of the corsa c sorry to many around compared to the b

for a corsa c that actually looks really nice, thats amazing considering i usually despise them

I'd never own another one. Probably 6 years ago I bought that! They're getting cheaper and every ones got one now lol.

Hopefully picking up a spoiler for the B soon... If the seller gets back to me! Along with a few other goodies if the price is right.

You painting the bumpers to?

Yeah man eventually. I want a gsi bumper first and there's one for sale local but it's up for over £100? Surely they're not worth that much?

Believe it or not they normally are mate shame u dont live near stoke there are two for £30 each

Finally picked her up today! Didn't get much time to do much though.

Changed the headlight bulbs for some osram night breakers I had lying around with some white led sidelights

Old bulbs were ruined!

Think I'll start on the bodywork this week, and strip the interior!

Few random pics of how she stands now...

Drive is getting full now lol
