Got it today, was fed up waiting for a white one plus there to expensive for just a bit of a rare colour 
I know some of yuo will hate it but I dont care I love it 
This is immaculate as you can see from the pics
The guy paid £3.7k for this last year and spent £2k on it since january I have every reciept here confirming it
The brace is brand new also got a s/s filter and oil breather thrown in with the sale
well what do yous think???

A friend of mine said they had trouble with the pedals so i got a corsa instead as a first car

Well spotted lads, the guy had the doors delocked and the bodykit repainted due to stone chips and the new paint makes the old stuff look dull as dishwater.
I polished the passenger wing up by hand just to see if the old paint will come back up and it did, its a base colour so a compound polish will bring it back to life.
I know it'll never be an exact match but as the car was sooooo clean, straight and had no expense spared on it I wasnt gonna let this put me off.
I sure some of the red owned corsas on here suffer paint fade thats just the way red cars are unfortunatly

they aint that small inside nik, if your at the RR day you can have a sit in it and youll see what I mean.
Speed wise theres nothin in it upto 80mph, after that the corsa would pill away due to the better torque but only just
