really wish to put discs instead of the ugly drums on the back of the car (corsa D).
Would there be any problems with regards to ABS etc? will having ABS just on the front brakes affect it in any way?

as far as im aware for example if you had an ABS sensor down / faulty the ABS system will completely stop working as each ABS sensor takes a wheel speed measurement from each wheel
be easier to find a corsa d SRI / VXR smashed up in a scrapyard and take whole back axle altough that would be a hard find

yeah plus I live 2000miles away from the UK so would be pretty expensive to ship it over + there are no Sri or Vxr in malta!  plus that would be a 5 stud setup so would need to change the front setup and the wheels.
if im not mistaken, the diesels are 4stud and have disks... the axle would fit i guess right? (they're easier to source here)

anyone has any idea if the rear axle off a Tigra (convertable) would fit a corsa D? the 1.4 on them has 4 stud disc brakes!

that is a very good question mate but if im right the tigra is based on the floor pan of a corsa c i think ive heard before ? 
maybe ask a vauxhall dealership / the lads in the garage there
