Well i finally got one. Had to travel 500 mile round trip from preston to London. (Harlow Essex). Done 38000 miles with FSH tax and mot till March 07. Absolutely chuffed. Really is a tidy car and goes like nothing I've had before. Here's the link to some piccies, might not be to everyone's taste, but i like it, got a couple of things planned for it but only had it since friday. It already has a strut brace aftermarket manifold and straight through exhaust, but no doubt i'll crave more power when i get used to it

yes 4-2-1, i'm still pretty new to the pug, but thats the one. The fronts got grooved disks and black diamond pads, i even got replacement black diamond pads. I'm pretty happy woth the mods, but i wanna get some peugeot GTI badges and get them back on. I know the cars smooth looking but i want those badges on Am very impressed with the handling and speed of the thing, just in time for summer, keep grinning every time i get in it

glad your happy with it mate, just put the GTI badges on the doors and leave the boot as is
The 4-2-1 is supposed to make a big difference all it needs now is a set of catcams and a remap

Haha, dont tempt me... least you're thinking like me, i'm just having the badges on the doors, and am tempted to remove the 'rimstyle' stickers from the windows... Just want it subtle, also considering a single wiper, but i dont want to lose the subtle look. thoughts?

I'd smooth the boot to match the rest of the car then leave it like that, taking the stickers off is also a good idea as I aint a fan of stickers on cars lol.
The wheels really suit it and the angel eye lights look great, the girl used to have them on hers but they gave off rubbish light at nite so she bought a set of morettes which makes it look more aggressive at the front, if the light wasnt so bad she would still have them.
Reason i'm selling is I feel its time to move no, had the corsa for 4 yrs now and just fancy a change and want something a bit newer

Cheers Matty, when i saw it, had to have it. Just booked it in for a thorough service on friday just to keep it tidy, I'll get some engine pics up today after i clean it (again). Meg's Gold Class gives a really good finish to the paint work, first time i used it on those pics, really good stuff.
