Is the finish on the wheels normally like that? Seem really flat, no shine to them?

Yeah, don't think those alloys are 'metallic' as such

Yeah, the only thing I would potentially do is something with the alloys and put SRi door mirrors on it.
I want it so bad.

my corsa was quite simular to that except it wasnt an exclusive. i had full heated leather, sunroof and full irmsher kits (twin round exhause, suspension, rear spoiler and front spoiler and side skirts) and it was dark blue (cant remember the name) I part ex'd mine in august, it was a 05 plate, and done 34,000 and i let it go for £4750.00   
i knew i should have sold it privately, but i wanted my cooper s so badly and was in a rush to get it lol

That was a bargain too 
The good thing with the Exclusiv is that it has Irmy bits as standard, so you don't have to register it as modified so much.

You don't have to register it as modified at all, as it's standard parts on the model.

Thing is the mileage on that one is a touch high for the price. Paid 6.5k from Vx for mine and that only had 27000miles on a 54 plate.
Also hate to piss on your parade, but you would have to declare that as modified on insurance. 'cus the airdam, sri alloys and the twin oval exhaust are all non standard.

But the insurance companys will still charge more to insure it as they know what parts are on it.

Should have said can and not will really as it is all based on person to person.

Don't think it'll be feasible until September really. May be though, haven't phoned insurance yet.

I'd put the Exclusiv alloys back on it. But it is a nice example of a C.
It looks quite low, how much is the Irmscher suspension kit supposed to drop it?

not alot of point in buying irmscher suspension imo. sri suspension is 15mm lower than sxi suspension. and for the price of the irmscher stuff your better off buying lower springs
