Awful. Bloody terrible.

rear wheels, too much camber.
Wheels are far too small, its got a big fat body, and small stumpy wheels.

IMO, its a case of being different, and not working at all Might look better with larger wheels. But not without getting rid of that silly rear wheel camber.

Tuck those rears wheels back in where they belong, and it could look alright.

I like it, strangely. I did prefer it when it didn't have the camber though.

I mean it's ok, it's in decent condition it's not a wreck and it doesn't offend my eyes so thumbs up.

Just wouldn't want to drive it.

Tbf it does look nicer than if the same things had been done to a mk4 Golf, but I still don't like this ScEnE/StAnCe lark.

My first thoughts were that it was a Corsa trying to be a Golf. Make of that what you will.

Going by what's been said that's why he did it to a Vauxhall, to prove you don't have to be a VAG to go with this style.

Split rim and twin colour makes it look like a 15".

REALLY don't like it. Would feel a prat driving that about.

Width does nothing for me on a car with less than 100bhp. Its just more weight. Not enough power to need it.

I have known Dan for a few years, proper nice guy and the car is stunning, air ride is very impressive with self leveling sensors on it.

Best looking corsa d out there imo.

And its a 1.3cdti.

No offence to the lad but how is this, as it's essentially just a debadged corsa on some nice wheels on air bags? it depends how you define 'best'

why has cs got such snobbery to the 'scene', if its done well, like that corsa obviously has been, i think it deserves applauds.

Think you need to take a look at who is actually slating it.

Preferred it when it was a touch higher. I'm not slating it, as I'm sure no one else is. Just questioning how sensible it is.

Can you also ask him why he wasn't at PVS this year
