First car - 1.2 8v Opel Corsa B - 1995

Kept it 18 months before sliding off a roundabout one night (diesel) and clipping a post


Decided to get it repaired (required jigged and new passenger front side including bumper

Lad I worked with was in love with the car so bought it off me and paid for the repairs


3 months later he flipped it 3 times into a field

how long did you own it? 7 months!

why did you sell it? i crashed it, which caused much more of the car to be bent

what size engine was it? 1.4 then 2.0
