You simply can't win on this site can you.
Do a sublte car, everyone whinges your copying.
Do a mad car, everyone whinges your a chav and its a waste of money.
To those people, I say, F-OFF AND GO FIND ANOTHER INTEREST IF THATS ALL YOU'VE GOT TO SAY.
Nothing wrong with chucking money at a vauxhall, same as a ford, just a smaller crowed. It it worth chucking thousands at a Mk1 golf??? Peopel do it because its a hobby. Im still paying my car bits off, am I really bothered?? Nope, I loved my time with my little vauxhall, and when funds allow, i'll be spending more on it.
Why, why not? My cash, my life, my interest, why not indeed

thic car has been bought by a 17 year old lad local to me and corsa_carl
he was out in it ragging it about last night, sounded like a 1.2 but if its a 1.6 it goes shite
its also got a huge green TEAM G-FORCE sticker in the back window now (local car shop, very shite indeed) so no idea why hes got that in the window (in green lol)
car looks very well done but I doubt it will still be in one peice in a few weeks time
it had rave blasting out of it too

Up your way now then. Original owner lived about 10 miles from me, but further down the coast.
Sounds like all well modified cars with new ned owners  Ruined shortly.

lol - I think the car does look nice however I can't imagine it being that much quicker than a standard 1.6! simply for the fact he's got all the BULK & Weight of the ICE and bodykit!

Quicker? Far from it. As soon as your on 16"s upwards, expect a drop in performance.
Add another 50kg of bodywork, its gonna go even slower.
Give it to a ned who cains it everywhere, the engine will get tired quickly, it'll go even slower.
But still, a few small changes and that interior would be awesome.

Exactly.
You've got loads of trophies as well haven't you? When you look at them, bet it makes you think, "wooooo my car won those, my imagination"
Trips all over the UK, trips to Europe, met some Euro hardball Opel'ers.
Its more than just a car, its a way of life. And if you get in the right bunch of people, its just brilliant.
I miss it

Spending alot on cars is just a hobbie, people just do it in different ways.
Just takes time and alot of cash to finish a total project of kit + inside and engine.
Which im finding out
I loved boyracer's corsa got a pic of it down MFN i do believe.
well it's on the cruisenotts website anyway

Looks 
The bodywork and interior look amazingly well done. It also looks like its been well looked after so far.
If it was mine, i'd space the wheels out more, and probably change the rear spoiler.
And who cares if he's asking £6.5k for it? If you could sell yours for that money, i doubt we'd hear you complaining!

Not a fan of kitted up cars really but like them when there well done like that.
Just to add to the "speedlines and GSi kit" argument, at trax there were 3 of us on the corsasport stand with GSi kit and speedlines and they all started out as GSi's.
It was irmscher left right and centre at trax
