Was browsing through the cars for sales ads on this site and came across this wee bargain , K plate 1993 corsa sri , black 123k miles , with full service history , had engine rebuild 20k ago , m.o.t. until june 05 , taxed for 1 month , paint was mega dull , looked as though never been polished before! , gave it a once over and its came up ok , few more coats of polish and it will look mint!



This is about the worst part on car , the hole around the wiper




Oh , bought it for the g/f and as a fall back if my car goes of the road for the 2l conversion

Now to get wheels , lowering kit etc for her

Its a bodyshop specialist one, so have a look at local paint supplies places, or try online... It's well worth it, used to use it on mine when it had black trim, looked brand new after using that
