Was all done for under £5k or something wasn't it? Thats why the put it on the cover, cheap(ish) cover car?!
Alot of the ideas seem a little thrown together, red glove box with blue painted interior?
Arch gaps on the ATS Cups make the wheels look silly!
Nice car in some aspects, be interesting to see how much it makes, or what the reserve is!

why does it make it a cheaper conversion if your base model is a 1.2

its a nice car in pics, but when i saw it in person at trax its a fair bit battered, and would of been much nicer in solid blue rather than having a rainbow flake in it.

Tbh, the sellers picture do it no justice and none of you seem to "get" the style of it
This comment makes me laugh! Who cares if its a GSI bumper or not? Its not as if there are only 10 in the world! 
Rob sold it a while ago. This lad seems to be trying to sell it for more than he bought it for....
As for it being rough, it was a well used car, did trackdays, loads of shows home and away. Whats the point of building a car thats gonna be a trailor queen? Anyway, all the cracks and imperfections were sorted before it was sold.
If i was the owner, the only thing i'd change is to lower it a little, to compensate for the missing boot install that was originally there.

well done to the guys at jessops and i can apreciate the craftsmanship but i really dont like that car, just nothing pops out, jimmy's corsa for example is one that 99% of people will love but this car just isnt appealing
i would however love a set of those rims for my corsa 
EDIT : just seen some of the feature pictures from fastcar and it looks ace there because its lowered so the wheels sit in the arches goodness knows what the guy on ebay has done to it

So the rubber sleave for the door wires was painted makes it rough? Ok?. Iirc, the whole rubber was the same colour and not just oversprayed blue. I'll find out if it was corner cutting or whether it was deliberate.
