lil g its just insurance if everything goes tits up, I've tried my best in the last 3 years to make a name for myself in this arena so I can get back in the game if this company/job goes to tits. The big increase is needed cause my next job probably wont have a car given to me

XE still has plenty of power for the corsa shell, just got to use with proper components like coilovers, diff, anti roll bar, stiffen the shell up and the car becomes a different animal imo.

yeah if I only had the corsa I would have no choice, and it would be gutting. No bump strips and shit I'd be proper para about parking it anywhere 
edit - plus I dont think I could stand having a shitter to drive about like a nova for a run-around.

I dont actually mind. I had the choice out of the Corsa or a more expensive car, but chose the corsa as it is a more everyday car and im not too fussed about dents etc.. they're bound to happen, so would rather it happened to a Corsa than a more expensive car

but my definition, your car is expensive after you've spent whatever amount on it?

Oh yeah, totally. But in my eyes its just a Corsa. Its alot more cheaper having a corsa £1k starting off shell, than doing it with something that costs £5k+ just to buy standard. Thats how I see it anyway.. And yes. I am a cunt
