seriously sexy car. needs bigger XEEEEE

sooo tidy

would be tempted to put softstars on it myself...

gorgeous matey, keep it up

this is such a nice car very shiny keep it up

Have loved this car from day 1 when I signed up to CS!

All mods look really good on it, and its a black Corsa that seems to stay really nice and glossy :thumbs:

Is there an engine change planned at all in the future or will you sell it on eventually for something with more power?

Ace car Sam! :D

Does it not say on the V5 who the previous owner was? I haven't seen him for ages though.

hmmm it has got a stiff accelerator lol.... probably is it mate - you still in touch with him? would love to have a chat....

Another thing the number plates that were on it when you got it, where they from Burnham garage in Slough? He had a private plate on it S11 LAY.

Sam was it Simon Lay? I would love it if it was, me and him used to race everywhere in our SXi's

If it was Simon Lays I drove your car, if I remember correctly it had a very stiff accelerator pedal.

Love the progress of this car , nice and subtle :D
