Some of you may know of the veterans past,some may not. Its not a pretty tale but its made it through everything thats been throuwn at it and lives to tell the tale. Anyways its recently had some serious abuse and neglect as i've been puting all the time and coin into the valver but as shes going to be bringing us to pvs this year thought i best treat her to some much needed tlc. Wish i had before photos,but if you can picture this -3 bald steel wheels,1 white slab(as 1 steel blew out),smashed front bumper with chicken mesh grill,broken top grill,no back box,couple holes in the middle section,serious need of a oil change and filter,you can get a rough idea of the nic she was in. Despite the old dents and scars and the tracking, a couple of hours in the garage at the weekend seen her looking half decent and running sweet as ever,even put the morrettes on the slag.

Heres a couple pics.

Would look a bit better if the bumpers matched, but it sounds like a massive improvement over how it was

Yes its been rolled into a field many moons ago and i lost it on the dips and bends a couple weeks back and stuffed her into wall,the wall came off worse only scuffed the front bumper and dented the wing on the bad side which was shite anyway. Ha was thinking of geting a black back bumper but i've no funds as i've got pvs,titp and a holiday to go on. Just tidyed the fucker up a bit for the trip. May even take out the dents in the door pillar and rear quarter eventually then she'd be as good as new,with a 2 ltr 8v turbo i was thinking

Pics after it ws rolled,cant belive how clean it all looks,had only done 21000 miles,1 lady owner. My brother had it 2 weeks and rolled it,new wind screen and tracking rod later it got through an mot and sat in the drive way till i took my 1600 of the road and took it as a run about nearly 2 years ago.

I've not been day shift for a wee while but whenever I am, I can hear it coming past at roughly 6:20 The Corsa is dead. Sacked it off for being a bawbag. My new car is most certainly a Veteran You will see it outside my house on Friday morning
