no
If you can get it done for Free then have it done.
If you have to pay then No

people think to much about Novas, Corsas are better made.
i would say 95% of Corsa with engines over 1.6 16v have NOT been seam welded

Well seeing as its already out and needs to be put into the corsa it makes sense.

I've been in a valver corsa (Street off here) with a stitch welded front pannel and chassis legs and fuck mine it handled superb better than mine with the same suspension and even the same wheels so go figure?

As mentioned above it doesnt really need doing but if i was to do an XE or Hight powered LET I definately would as its not that expensive to do at all
