I dare say I'm going to be a big fan of this car when its finished. Its difficult to say that right now as there are still mods to go on but the fact remains, big wheels look good - especially when that much work has gone in to getting them on. When you can lower that far I don't see 19s as being at-all criminal. Standard arches and lowered accordingly maybe but that car simply has "performance" proportions. Its big wheels *not* combined with a proper ride height that makes things look silly.

To be honest I'd have stopped at arches the accomodate the wheels, brakes and the engine mods. Stiffen up the chassis and that would have done me. Changing the lights really does a dis-service to the original design of the Corsa which I'd want to refine not replace.

This car is going to up the ante though.

Lets be honest - it wouldnt make cover car if it had 15s on it, standard arches and a combat kit and it wouldnt make cover if it was just the car with 19s, and it wouldnt make it if it just had the engine. If its gonna be a one off and a promotional car, pull out all the stops and do it different i say.

Gonna look well nice i think.

For fucks sake everyone!!!!!

IT IS A CAR TO SHOW OF THE SKILLS OF THE COMPANY!!!!

What is everyone going on about how it drives? Who the fuck cares, it will look mint when it's finished.

And it is just the same as that white corsa from Ireland on the front of 'Revs'(?) a while back on them 18's on and a 1L engine.I'm sure he could drive that and in the feature he was.

And what about Paul's saxo on 19's?? He could drive that couldn't he??

It is not much different than a 1.2 on 17's and it will still be fast.

Respect to Desmond,good luck with it all.

It's not -120 at all tho, the drop should be measured against a standard car from a fixed point i.e. door handle or window, a corsa that was -120mm lower than a standard car would be few cm down in the ground
