i really hope that diesel 306 with venoms isnt yours casue if it is. i think you need to put some thought into modifying
Yeah its mine but i didn't modify it, i acquired it like that! And its going in december so hardly going to start spending money changing it.
You cant really offend anyone with kits on corsas pal, as they look ten times better than that pug of yours  Please Buy A Corsa! 
Corsa--Combat nice job mate, get it lowered asap

Thats your opinion and your welcome to it, personally i think a colour coded phase 1 306 witha d-turbo front bumper, and out of date alloys that have a stigma atached to them, looks better than the majority of half heartedly kitted corsa's about.
Basically, the back bumper looks like its just been stuck on, as do the side skirts and the wheels are too small. For the money spent to modify it to its present state it could look 50 times better.
How about this;
post 97 front and back if it didn't already have it,
colour coded bumpers and door handles.,
lowered (could keep same wheels for this)
Badgless grill, Semi-smoothed boot,
clear indicators, Gsi spoiler. (all ready got)
Gsi/steinmetz skirts, abit of smoothing here and there if need be. Standard/smoke lights.
Then it would be 
If a disagree then i suggest you go open all the doors possible on your corsa and take a few more pics

corsas are better than pugs even as standard pal.. and i do agree his corsa need a bit of work, im not really a fan of it being a different colour o the kit and skirts. and if youre referring to my doors beign open on my pic..... my car is 100 times better than yours, and why dont you have a go at anyone else with doors open on their pics?? it just looks better on the picture thats all, dont get me wrong i think your a decent lad, but it just annoys me when people offend corsas with kits on.... i could understand if it was a chav corsa with a huge sunstrip but it isnt

I own a corsa and completely disagree with you. 306s standard for standard have better handling than the Corsa, the like for like models are faster and lower insurance groups, IMO the body styling is better on the 306 and they tend to go for ever.

100 times better? Don't you get the theory behind opinions?
And taking pics of cars with the doors open, bonnet etc looks better? what planet you on, it looks bloody daft! Yeah open the bonnet if your taking a pic of the engine bay etc, otherwise there is no need.

heard alot of bad things about 306s. ar filters being positioned down low n u can suck water up in them going thru a puddle n wreck it. radiators arent supposed to last too many years b4 they need replaced. wiring looms problems. etc. was thinkin of buying one for the work miles till m8 whose owned a few and a mechanic in a peugeot garage put me off that idea
