Hello all,

I haven't owned a corsa in about 3 years now, but I still come on here very often to check up latest projects etc... So I thought I would post my new (old) car.

Just incase you don't know who I am, I will post a couple of pictures of my old cars. Just for the sake of it.

First Corsa:


Second Corsa:



Third Corsa:


The BMW:


While owning the BMW I moved to Switzerland and took it with me. A few weeks later this happened (When I left it parked up):





Then once that was repaired (Also left parked up):



This happened right after I got it back:



Shortly after that I decided to take the car back to the UK and sell it.

So now to the reason why I posted in the first place, my new car just for getting me to A - B, while I am living in Switzerland.




Sorry for my life story in pictures lol. Hope you enjoyed looking.

Forgot to post the spec of my new car:

1994 Opel Astra 1.4 8v (82bhp version) GLS
Electric Mirrors/Windows
Sunroof
Power Steering
Full set of winter wheels
Full set of summer wheels

Really about it, nice car to drive, but very uncomfortable seats on longer journeys. The body work is scratched and dated (the car is 15 years old), but no signs of rust in the usual places. Even the underneath is immaculate.

front lights on the BMW are so crap

Someone did you a favour hitting the front end - should have got standard replacements

usual smart arse comments on here then. Lights came with the car when I bought it and did what they were designed to do, so didn't see the point in changing them.

I meant by the smart arse comment was the fact you said someone did you a favour smashing into the front. Comment all you like on the lights, but stupid comments like that are just useless. Some people like the lights, some don't. I know that, so I expect comments.

The hassle to change just a front bumper is in no way a favour.

Indeed, even worse when you get the car fixed and someone decides to do it again. Nevermind glad got rid of that car anyways, was starting to get poorly.
