this thread is about me so no need to start being funny and all
i wasnt having a go, i was just pointing out the fact that no show would want your car as itl jst be a standard corsa with a standard engine. nothing original really there and not much work gone into it to pass as a show car.
if the only reason you want to do this is for a show car, stop wasting your money. however if u want to do it for a laugh (or a hobby) then go for it, but dnt expect anything to become of it

yes, but only seats like recaro and the high end of spraco/etc are going to be over a grand. can get a decent pair between 500-1000 still

why would people spend thousands on a show car if you could do it for "pennies"?
