After being off the road since February this year today I finally got the corsa back on the road!!!

Rang up the insurance this morning, bargain, fully comp with protected no claims and ALL mods declared and 2 fault accidents last year.... £400

Then off we go to the MOT station where my £35 test passed

Then she got a oil change and a wash and here she is......



List of things to do though...

New bonnet
Change exhaust
Repair sideskirt
Give the leather a clean
Raise the suspension

But overall im so pleased i was driving like this

Thought I would share it with you

I am looking out for a GSI kit to replace this one to be honest as I would need front and rear bumpers and a side skirt to tidy it up so may as well get the lot

get it back to standard imo, its the best colour, get it nice and tidy
