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.

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

Prefer them, in my opinion, they don't go wrong as much
