I'm a bit strapped for ideas of what to do with my car at the min an I need some help off you folks !!! I'm not sure whether to do some more to this corsa, or split it and get something faster such as a saxo VTS or 106 GTI. I wouldn't mind doing some more to the corsa, but I always have a nagging thought that its a complete waste of money, which could be better spent by putting it towards another car or saving it for a rainy day...

Heres some pics of how it looks at the min, feel free to give suggestions and your opinions to what I should do...

tbh you havent done that much now for it to be a waste, so you should probably save up for something faster. but check how much insurance is gonna go up as well and stuff

thats exactly what i'm thinking. Before I add stuff that can't be easily removed, i need to make a decesion what i want to do. I wouldn't mind something faster, but I always wanted a fully modified corsa, but i think i'm getting too mature for my age and don't want to waste my money....

Mather - how do you find the pedals in the pug ?? I've driven a few (not for long though) and they took a bit of getting used to, especially the clutch pedal...

I'd definatly return it back to standard before I sell it anyway, cos i'd lose a fortune otherwise...

seriously modified cars are more hassel than what they are worth ( IMO ) either keep it the way it is or get a factory standard fast car
