The majority of 3door corsas i see are shit aswell so what does this mean?
And yes i am biased  - its more practical, you wont get your B pillars cracking like in the 3dr's and like Tim said it's different and same arguement as why bother modding a 1.2 8v?
Rob H - Thats blantantly a shop look at the wheels and the mismatch colour of the doors  you just put the middle part of a 5dr between the two ends of a 3dr 
As i sed i am 18!!! am a student and have no money!!!!!!! If i buy anything faster than 1.2 8v the insurance bloke is bending me over for rear penatration! I need a car cos i travel to uni and was GIVEN this car by my rents, so wud ya rather i drive without insurance?

Um only pic I have is that one through the window really... I would go take one, but the car's 30 miles away
Only really done seats and some silver detailing on dash. Nothing special. If I was keeping it I'd strip it again and make a track-day style car, add discs all round (with appropriate biasing)... If I'm honest the car is in an incomplete state as it either needs stripping properly, or the rears/door cards retrimming so the interior looks nice... Just don't wanna spend money on it now that I won't get back if I'm selling...

I'm of the opinion that 3k upwards I'll sell -- less than that I might as well keep it as a toy...
Rear seats are std post-97 'funky bluey grey' seats... like I said either need removing again or retrimming

no one is dissing you for that, as quite a lout of people have 1.2 8V;s they are just stating it as an example.
i had a 1.0L 12V, and i'm just in the process of gettin 90bhp out of it....
stickin a 1.4 16V in instead

5 doors can look nice 2 on here which are nice tims and a blue one think a guy from scotland ownz it, really dislike the back lights on the 5 door tho, a guy at the college i attend every month has got a red corsa and hes putting a body kit on it think its euro, didnt look good at all, but he hadnt sprayed it yet and it always makes a big diff once finished so i cant really say its shite but its on its way thier imo
