Just bought this for the Mrs and my 5 month old son. Previous owner has looked after it well and had her resprayed in lotus azure blue.
91000 on the clock, its only a 1.2 8v so not the most exciting car out there but a good start to driving for the mrs.
Please tell me what you think

lol, everyone says it needs lowering. Was parked up next to another standard corsa this morning and you could literally put your head between the gap of the front wheels and arch. It dont look that bad on mine?

yea looks a tidy little motor that.

Obviously as everyone has said it needs lowering, but if its for the misses and the kid then probs better off leaving it riding high and comfy

Eibach springs will lower it 30mm and it'll still be a nice drive.

One of the nicest looking corsa's I have seen if I'm honest. Leave it riding high, Cant imagine a baby enjoying going over bumps with stiffer suspension.

There's a measurement for cars with standard suspension based upon shoe sizes. Mine was size 11:
