Evening all,
Bought a corsa today so thought I'd say hello on here. Bought the corsa as a run around primarily while I play with my astra mk3 gsi, but I'm sure it won't be standard for long. Gotta do something with the pogo style suspension though as I nearly fell out the window when cornering earlier 
Pics


how pink?

it's got a blown head gasket but still not bad for £200

Strange I had a pinkish MR2. T-cutted it and used Autoglym for a deep red shine. Also worked on my old Escort
