Bought my 3rd Corsa today. Got this cracking GSI with LET conversion. Engine is totally standard and runs great.
I have big plans for the future once my cash builds up again:
-New wheels, maybe 16" Softstars
-Body work does need a little TLC so that is another priority
-Stiffen the front end up. Its apparently lowered 40mm but does look lower. Could this be down to extra weight from the engine? Its far too bouncy for me so new shock are a must. Lower at the back.
-New system and get rid of that hideous back box 
-Then onto other things which I havent even thought of yet as Im skint!
Take a look anyway.

What the hell. Clio 172 wheels! Never had thought of those fitting on a corsa. They're like marmite, not sure whether I love em or hate em!
Where did u find the corsa for sale by the way?

I knew this would be an issue I dont like them personally. A mate of mine is having them anyway so I dont care. It was on PH mate.

Yeh as you said they're like marmite. I think they would look better if the car was lower.
