Ok for the last few months i have been busy decorating the house and now im looking to spend some attention on my car (again)

If i was to tell you that it is a Corsa B standard, what would be the first things you would tell me to do to it to improve it both internally and externally???

I havent got copious amounts of cash but i am looking to do little bits here and there. Plus i havent a clue about what goes on underneath the bonnet but would like to improve it. Strut bars? K&N filters?

Where shall i start guys/gals??

Thanks
Saz

Wheels first, then lower it, then tidy up the bodywork.

Why the fuck do you want an electronic dump valve? They dont sound like dump valves at all, if you want to get laughed at your going the right way.
