chris c - his old c20let... was quick..
tbh, that looks no worse than a Corsa with standard kit, lowered, with alloys and bigger brakes.
that would be because it is a pritty much standard corsa lowered on alloys 
tryin to find the pee shooter pic

The point I was making is that most people ridicule 5 doors because they look wank, modded or not, but that one looks just as good as a subtly modded 3 door.

No worries. I bet you're glad you kept it after the little crash - would have been criminal selling it.

Whether it's a LET or 12v, that still looks good. And certainly shouldn't be ridiculed like 5 doors normally are.

its totally different and worse than the 3 door corsa, which lets face it arn't hard to find a 3 door, thats why they are ridiculed. I have a 5-door car, but only difference to mine and the 3 door are the amount of doors not an entirely squarer back end etc.
for example, a 3 door with the smae mods will look better everytime.

yeah, i'll stand over the other side with 99.9% of people who know that the extra window and the squarer back on the 5-door are alot less aestetically pleasing than on the 3-door.

the front looks nice, it's just the extra doors and the rear end that makes it look crap IMO. too boxy and square for the corsa's curviness.

Yes Tim's does look good, but would you have that over a star silver 3-door with front airdam and all the same mods?

Lies!
thats the point, it's not just two extra doors like it is on other cars. I drive a 5-door too nothing against them, just vauxhalls shitty effort at the corsa b one.

5 door corsas are just wrong. The whole back end just looks a complete mess, as if it was a fri afternoon design before the designers fucked off on the piss.
