I'm shocked ?
Shocked to see you in what looks like a standard car.
I'm so used to seeing you in your old one, and just knowing with out a thought.
O look there goes john..
Looks like a great buy, Tidy and the colour is cool too.
Well done.

not bad, like the sound of what you have planned, my only niggle is that you've gone for another corsa! i know that you may be well familiarised (or however you spell it) with them but haven't you ever wanted something different? not dream car wise but something with 1.8 - 2.0litre power as standard or something classic or more up-to-date?
always looking for those bigger bunches of bananas!

Why take the wiper off? uve not gained a smooth look,u just have a black circular blemish on ur boot now
And why take the sport badges off? now people could think u have a breeze when u dont. U have a top model so why not show it off

Its a blemish in the fact its a pointless black dot,which imo looks pointless,and a wiper is much more practical.
as for the basge removal,it does look better gone but ur earlier description made no sense ("taken the sport badges off as there are alot of corsa "breezes" in this colour but its rare to find the sports in em")
But,as long as u like it better now,just IMO it looks daft having a black spot where something should go

the "black spot" is called a gromet an its hardly a blemish its there to stop water getting iside the boot, so it does hold a purpose!!!!
i went for over 6 months without a rear wiper on my last one wen i had a smooth boot an it didnt trouble me one bit so ur statement about practicality is crap.
that sentence i made does make sense, they made alot of lower models in this colour an not many in the sports so to any tom dick an harry this is prob a 1.1 meaning dicks on the road will just pass me by where as if i have the sports badges on other cars of same performance would be egging for a race which i dont want,
only the people that take the time to come have a proper look at my car "not boy racers" will then find out it is a sport an they are the people i would rather talk to
