Tough choice, but after many hours of deliberation I decided to vote for my car LOL.

Would also like a total shed for the randomness though!

a "standard" 2.0ltr corsa would be a bit of a weapon! Without some decent wheels, brakes and suspension its going to be a right deathtrap!

Gotta be the second option for me (with a 12v badge on the back)

I love the way my car, its a totally standard lookin gsi but with an XE engine, the only difference to the outside is the 15" speedlines and the 3" s/s zorst, no one has any idea whats under the bonnet until I race them and then they start askin questions

Steel wheels buckle at high speeds. Also, you can't run decent profile tyres on them so you would wheel spin all over the place. Also, you need wider wheels so that you can go round corners. Also, if you have bigger wheels - e.g. 17's - it takes more tourque to spin the wheels... e.t.c....

Because they are cheaper to replace than alloys. You'll notice that the Police use thier cars as weapons, often blocking people they are chasing so that the can't escape. This means that the parts on the cars need to be replaced as cheaply as possible. Also, undercover Police cars are very rarely invloved in high speed chases e.t.c.. as they aren't normally fitted with sirens and blue lights - they call backup.

All I've got to do to mine to have it just as I want it is a set of coilovers! Just got my huge brakes on.

Not too fussed about the skirts, don't ant it looking too "kitted". Just subtle
