Need a cheap runaround car, been offered a white 1.2 8v corsa again for £495, prob get it for £425. Was thinking how to make it look nice anyone got any ideas?

Im thinking maybe black cav gsi rims, mhw rears, depos and lowered 60mm, semi smooth boot, maybe get some post 97 bumpers and maybe tint windows

Any other suggestions?

Hmmm really not sure, said he can do it for £400 but its a bit of a mess, oil around the rocker cover gasket, i know thats a cheap job, few rust patches, cracked front bumper, headlights are securely attatched but look wonky

id buy it. As for the gasket its an easy job to do, and the cracked bumper shouldn't matter much if your changing it to a post 97 one same with the headlights.
