This is my Corsa SRi i have just purchased, its had 1 lady owner all its life, done 72k and has got full Vauxhall dealer service history. Here a pic from when i picked it up,

masked up ready for a reet good polish!

all polished up and trims have been siliconed.



heres a pic of the interior, got to get rid of that old people smell.

this is just my runaround so no engine mods will be done, I'm after putting some late 2000my bumpers on and painting the arches black, lowering it 40mm and some vauxhall 15" alloys, possible cesaros. a mesh grille from super novas and i already have a bid going on some clear side repeaters on our friend, e-bay. gonna remove the tailgate badges. I will also probily convert it to electric mirrors and windows.
any coments welcome
cheers

Why do people say, 800 notes, or 800 sheets?
You dont get £1 notes AFAIK, only £5 or above.
So £100 could equate to 20 notes, not 100

Advantage of working at a main dealer who doesnt want L reg trade-ins hanging around the place

You still get the odd £1 note up here sometimes. They're usually pretty grotty and beaten up tho, same with fivers.
Nice SRi's tho. The anthracite Vectra alloys look really good on the black one

Looks well tidy for a 95 
Black to black cleans up the trims when you get polish all over them lol. Fair play though, might do that one myself.

may be looking into some speedlines although i think the wheels give it character because thats what everyone notices first about it for some reason and say it sets it off. i like how they go with the arches. but want to get the body work done first i think as its a little ruff around the edges, im just awaiting a price,
