just got my new Corsa B GSi
63,000 miles, irmscher backbox, caribic blue, t+t, 4 new tyres on original gsi alloys.
unmarked throughout - so happy with it!
paid £1650

just wondering where is the cheapest place to buy a set of speedlines brand new. wheelbase are doing them for £658 or £681 with yoko's
anywhere cheaper that delivers??

pics to follow as its a bit too dark atm!

Just depends what it's going to be like underneath ???? If i was you i would try and remove though as it ruins the line of the gsi's..

nice car though.

semi smooth boot should be on your list makes rear end look so much cleaner..

interior looks mint too,(except knobs ) get a set of vaux mats in there

yeh i ordered the vaux mats the day after i got it! i hate those tacky ripspeed things.
lowered the car today on the spax RSX kit and it sits mega low on the speedlines and dosent catch at all, the ride is firm but not too hard and it handles mint! realy happy with evrything so far!
ive bought a new scuttle that im gunna attempt to half-smooth!
also ordered the boot handle and badge off the later corsa (1997+) wich im going to colour code

looks like my old flair

same side strips, same knobs and light switch - no1 in the right mind would change normal ones for green!
