Hi all,
Heres a bit about myself. My name is Alan, im 17, live in Anglesey, North Wales and work as an apprentice mechanic.
Anyway enough about me, heres my corsa, its a 1996 flame red Phase 1 1.4 sport, got it in january completely standard with 33000 miles on the clock, well 37000 on it now lol 
what ive done so far:-
-40mm up front and -70mm at the rear
caesaro alloys
stainless de-cat and 3.5 inch outward rolled back box
unrestricted standard air box
2ltr brakes
and polished various parts
and a few various other things
and hopefully heres the pics if they work lol
atm the car isnt running 100% right and is slightly down on power @ 87hp and 85 LB/ FT compared to 88 and 92 as standard but ive changed a few things and cleaned a few parts and it seems to run slightly better now so it will hopefully go back on the rolling road this week lol

Thanks!. All the work has been done by myself, to polish the inlet I sanded it down to get all the casting marks off it and then sanded it smooth with fine wet and dry paper to get all then sanding mark off the alloy, then I used autosol on a polishing mop attached to a drill. it takes quite a long time but the results are worth the effort I recon
