It depends on a lot of things really

How old are you? do u crave speed? What would you like to do to it? Can you afford to spend money on something that does not pay you back with money, just smiles

In my opinion i would say,if you like your corsa and would like to keep it then swap the engine for a calibra lump and really smarten it up inside and out.

If not then swap the car for something bigger, faster and just better

If you just plan on "chavving" it with a set of lexus lights and 3 spokes then i would say leave it standard.

The 1.2 lump will pack up sooner or later so if you are not willing to do an engine swap then dont waste money on bodywork on a car that will die soon

Well my car is 13yrs old and done 116000 miles. you will have to spend money on it for repairs first of all and get it runnign right before anything. which can cost more than moddding it. i should know!!!!. like scoop says depends what you want to do with it.
