Silver Corsa B
I bought my first Car, a 1.0 12v Corsa! I wanted one with work needed instead of work already done so I can get exactly what I want. I bought it in October and already a lot has changed.
This is when I first got it, Bump strip half removed.
First thing I did when I got home was de-wiper.
Picked up a spoiler on Ebay for £1, couldn't go wrong with that! Only it was Blue. Painted it black and bolted it on!
Next came fitting a Bonnet strut, I stole this off my Mums Passat before it was scrapped. Last owner painted the engine Blue, makes me sick everytime I look at it! Yet to get round to putting it back original. Anyway this is how it stands at the minute.

Re: Silver Corsa B
Clean up the outside, lower it, possibly strip the interior and put a cage in, not sure yet and eventually drop a 2.0 8v in

If it doesn't fit,

If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway
