I need a hug

Going to his new owner tongiht and shall be SORELY missed. I only wish i had more time, money, space and less debt. Then i would have kept her FOREVER

Anyway, 5 years ive had him, my fave car ive ever driven so fast its silly. Had some good times. I shall most probably be crying later

Pics:
From early on





Then had all the bodywork sorted:

You turned that car around! Didn't realise how untidy it was when you got it.

One of the only kitted Corsas I like

The new keeper is me! Yay!

I understand how you feel jambo, I had to sell my pride and joy to clear debt a while back. Sorry mate! It wont be long before youre throwing Phase 3.5 gear at the cally tho and not looking back.

I'll be taking the car to the strip and shows yes. Going to the Beds RSOC meet this month to show my RS enthusiast buddies! Bait. Hahaha

Car was totally std when i got it, i got ripped off by the biggest cowboy bodyshop on earth, nothing i could do about it other than save up It all flaked off over time


I settled on a realistic value of what its worth. Im ashamed to say ive been so busy working etc i havnt had more time to take pictures of the interior or car

Icy i remeber that! Crikey how much has changed

It goes minus the interior tonight


Starting to well up.......

One of the only fully kitted Corsa's that actually looked good imo! Looked so smart up at Guidford on that CS meet last month (when I didnt know any1!) Really like the discreet touches I didn't know you had done like the mfd - how easy was that to do?
