Still got mine, getting ready for a change soon, but might keep the corsa as a second car bit of fun to play around with and would stop be tinkering with whatever I buy next (hopefully)

Don't regret selling the 12v, but now not entirely sure I should have bought its replacement (brand new C).

The C is much nicer and I love it, but buying brand new means I really need to keep it a good while to make it worth the depreciation......something I didn't think of at the time.

Hindsight eh.....

Still got it, had it a bit over 2 years now, still love it, still got plenty of plans for it so it's gonna be around for quite a while yet

Might be treating it to a rear ARB tomorrow and if I do, I'll also be testing out bucket seats to see which ones are worthy of my car

Definately not. My first car was a 1.1 Fiesta Mk3 which I had for 6 months, spent a fortune doing shite mods such as venoms, peco big bore 4, cosworth body kit etc.. lol was 9 years ago now though!

I miss mine but it was time to move on, only thing that annoy's me is the money i lost as i was selling it the day it met a barrier

but the corsa C was a good re-placement as it's hassle free motoring atm

going to add a combo C to the fleet in a few week's
