Got a message on scoobynet from the guy that bought my old scooby. Gave me an update on it.

Here's how it was when I sold it him for £3200. Was a mint car and a different kind of drive to my current one altogether

I sold it him last september. By November he'd screwed the gearbox and had to buy a new one

Then, November came and he blew a piston and had to get a full rebuild

He's added an induction kit

a FMIC, some new wheels, some sti rear lights, some stickers

and tinted the windows. Here's how it stands....

What do you reckon? - Preferred it before personally, new wheels aren't too bad but looks like it needs to go down 20mm now

Looked much better before.

The side on pic makes it look like a replica! Just looks cheap.

Is the front missing a splitter?

Graphics are tremendously ghey, wheels are horrid.

Defiantely needs to go a bit lower.

Looked Much Better in the before pics mate.

That's the reason i will never sell my corsa once it's finished Because soem muppet will just do stupid ods and Ruin it

when i sold my Rover 200 with a few subtle mods the new owner Since added Chrome M3 mirrors, VTr & VTS Badges front and back, TYPE R Badges on the windows, Racing & Sport Badges on the doors, a Team Dynamics Sunstrip and a set of 17" 5 spokes which are so badly kurbed they look like they are held together by gravity alone

Worst of allhe is local so when people see him hear his Crackling tunes driving around with his scratched to death tints people think it is still me who own's it.

I should have realised what would happen to it when i bought the corsa off him with the cringeworthy mods it had on lol

It looks alot more upto date now, I would've chosen different wheels and no graphics but not bad. Was never keen on the Gold wheels as it was, or the Morrettes.
