    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

    Note: the above may or may not be entirely correct.

    This was done by a few lads from CorsaSport. To say it's fooled a few websites is an under estimate.

    Most screamed Photoshop after taking the time to look properly. There a thread over there with a list of websites that have been fooled. lmao

    Here are some pics of my Nan's old one that she used to use to get the weekly shop from tescos.




    It kind of went OK, but TBH i think its quite a tame conversion and your friend should try soemthing more ambitious.

    FFS some people obviously have never heard of a well known package call Adobe Photoshop. Its an amazing piece of software which has single handedly concoured the art of messing with digital images.

    As has been said already in this thread, what your actually seeing is a picture of my engine bay (and wheels) photoshopped into someone elses white Corsa (someone on Corsa Sport).

    How many more times do people have to point out the bleedin obvious lmao

    whats your point "Mr M3" ?

    implying that everyone on corsasport is a chav is like saying that everyone on here is old, bald and has a vectra.
