Sunday i was abit bored so decided to "valet" the corsa, i started by washing it with autoglym car shampoo,then chamoised it with an autoglym chamois thing,

after i had completly dried it i treated it to a polish using autoglym ultra deep shine, followed by a meguiars tech wax,

autoglym'd all the tyres so tey where nice and shiny, also fitted a single wiper conversion a couple of weeks ago,

so that was my sunday, we then headed off and found this pretty cool location for some pictures,
















what you think then people?

cheers Sandsy

If so keep it looking as it is (mnus the Saxo spoiler) , stick the engine in etc and it will be class

no mate, on cars registered after 73 (I think L reg first time I think), you need to have a white reflective background on the front and yellow reflective background on the rear, you can only legal have black plates on a pre 73 car, which you will stuggle to find a pre 73 corsa!! LMAO

correct me if I have the wrong year someone!
