Hi,
Right well hopefully soon I shall be coming into some Money but i cant decide what to do with it?
Im tied between;
1.After seeing other people's 2L T Projects & going to PVS Etc im finding myself really wanting a 2L T.So i can either Buy one or Build one?
2.Get a Corsa D VXR & Modify it a little?
3.Finish my current 1.6 16v on TB's Project?Which TBH is quite a way of and im getting a little Sick of not having a Car?
So i really cant decide i know most people will not say continue with the 3rd option but i would like to see it finished,And also its all down to me but i need a little Help to hopefully make my mind up.
My minds telling me a Corsa B Turbo but my Hearts telling me a Corsa D VXR,And a other small % is telling me to piss with the Cock ive got
So Please give me your input......
Thanks
Craig

Thanks for your Input,I like the thought of the Corsa D VXR Purely because they are a nice Car standard and even better modified properly.Also they are New which is far better.

option 3, build ya car to how you have always wanted it, you will definately appreciate more than just a new vxr,
i know i would anyway but thats just my opinion,

New one every time, the other ones are just throwing money away to still have a corsa b.

A corsa vxr will be more of an 'investment' compared to the clet but its what you want to spend the money on and if you care about return in the future....
Personaly id build a high powered reliable turbo corsa b as it would be 10x more fun but its alot higher risk and also more stressfull than just splashing out on a vxr

Im not really that bothered about losing Money as i would of had a Car that i wanted.
But what does bother me is i wont have this kind of money again so its either one or the other and i dont want to make the wrong decision.

do the corsa b.. as you get older your attractions will probably be less with modifying cars and be diverted elsewhere.
just think in 10 years time you could still go out and buy a new hot hatch, but i very much doubt youd be arsed to build a fast and fun corsa B.
save new cars for when your older tbh.

I like your thinking,Dont know weather i can wait that long though.Plus a Newer Model Corsa will just come out so a Corsa VXR wont be that good then?

yeah a corsa vxr will be a thing of the past and will be replaced with something much better.

agreed. If its a fair bit of cash then get a dirt cheap run around aswell while you finish it so your not going without a car.

drive a corsa vxr then go out in a corsa b with a c20let then decide what you want to do.

I imagine the Vxr will be more comfy. But put the seats in a C20LET B then there's no problem

And the dash, chassis, safety features, warranty, refinement, reliability etc etc, they aren't quite as easy as the seats.
