Bought Richie's corsa off him as my new project car, plans include refitting the suspension and engine, fitting the reyland 4 pots, getting the engine tuned to around 180bhp, respray, new front bumper, smooth boot with saxo spoiler on top of the gsi one, and getting my toora wheels refurbished. Only got the car yesterday, already fitted the seats, swapped the lights over, changed the rear suspension. Ill be putting progress pixs up over the next few weeks, hoping to get it all done apart from the bodywork and engine conversion before i go back to uni in 2 weeks 
The new bumper - RSR from ffwdmotorsport
Car as it was
Couple of progress pics...

front bumper on the silver one will be for sale if you want it mate, same as the rear. Im gonna stick em on ebay proibably. Only thing that will be left from the silver one is the skirts Hoping to get it all finished apart from the engine conversion by 2 weeks after the easter holidays, when is PVS? Im gonna miss having the 2 litre, the 1.2 seems sssooo slow. Still, will give me chance to get the engine running properly and looking good, including dfitting the silicone hoses and getting the rocker cover powder coasted etc .
