My Corsa Turbo project

Ok, been looking for a good Corsa sport for the past 3 month with no luck until I found this one on Ebay. It's a V reg 1 owner low mileage Corsa sport with loads of history from Mr V himself.
Travelled over 300 miles for her and it was worth it, un abused clean honest little car.
Bought it on 01.08.08 looking like this and now LET the fun begin.

Re: My Corsa Turbo project

02.08.08 Day 2
1st thing that had to be done was the suspension, removed the standard ones and replaced them with SPAX coilovers.
Then I removed the bump strips off the doors and rear quarter panels along with all the glue and finally I replaced the wheels with Cav GSI ones.
I will update this next week after I receive my next pay note LOL
