The only thing thats different is that its now got a full interior and doesnt have a cage.
Its not as if it was going to see a race track to need them anyways lol.
After tomorrow I can assure you it will be just as clean as it used to be.
Its like a step back, like putting cali leathers in your corsa then returning it to merit shitters....

Was uncomfy as fuck with the buckets aswell!
Lol at striped and caged corsa being diffrent! come on eh its a corsa!
And the tints arnt to hide anything! just stops u feeliing like ur driving about in a greenhouse stops evey one lookin in on u!
Just a corsa? i thought everyone here was into corsas
Nope, everyone seems to hate corsas on here.
Its hardly been ruined because hes changed HIS car to suit HIM.
(I did prefer it before though).

The whole point was he was trying to sell it but it was dirty
In my garage I have pictures of the car dirty and then after I clean it to compare them, I didnt say my car was always clean anyway

The money and effort still shows, just because the car is a lot more user friendly doesnt say "wasted" to me.
I admit i'm not a fan of any tinted windows on any cars but that suits it due to the colour of the car.

I suppose wasted is a strong word
I like the car less now, compared to when ryan had it, I still like the car of course. Jordan take a step back mate no need to fall out, after all as you say its just a corsa

It wasnt that it was just stripped and caged, it was the money and effort that went into it making it perfect, not like the soundproofing was just chiselled out and the cage was flung in, was all done nicely and painted with a lot of effort
Tbh a corsa XE isnt really ment to be a quiet work car (hence why it was sold)
Yes he changed it to accomodate his needs, but it looked better the way I seen it
Maybe iuo! if u are were so botherd about it u should have bought it ur self and kept it just the way it was  but u never! my mate bought it he changed his car to the way he wanted it
Ha its a chav mod is it! maybe if they were dark smoke thn ayee but ther light! not evey 1 likes to be on show
All theperfect paint is still there dont worry ur self! and alot oftime and effort went in to grindin the cage out:
Lots of people use there xe corsas to go to work and bck mines done 50,000 miles to work and bck its ment to be for what ever u build it/ buy it for

I wanted to buy it, but couldnt afford it
What I ment by the work thing is, an xe isnt really quiet.... If he doesnt like noise he should have bought a 12v (unless the noise of the chain would be too much)

It's still a nice car - yes it looked better with the cage and buckets in and without the tints but it's still a good example of a decent corsa.
