He didnt want the corsa cos everyone has corsas, and he wanted the challenge of trying to keep the bodywork all together all the time.

Only messin pal, but please please please please, whatever you do and however long you keep it, Dont fit a bodykit to it thumbsup

yeah still got it, cant decide what to do with it tho- either put a turbo'd zetec and a full Zannetec cage, with a proper set up rear end, and have some skidding fun or sell it and start saving up for an S13, the car i have been dreaming about for years.
will prob end up selling both soon anyway tbh lol
