Corsa is going Thursday *Now With Pictures*

Well went to vauxhall for a browse and to look at the 1.4 sxi new corsa had a test drive then had a test drive in a 1.6 vauxhall astra, the vauxhall astra worked out cheaper than the cheapest corsa and had more power - I got £1000 for my car (full deposit) and another £4000 of the astra which is a active with aircon, airbags, alloys cd player etc and is a 1.6 16 valve so I decided to go for that - star silver 07 plate with 1 mile on clock and I got to choose out of 10 number plates lol. So on Thursday it will a sad day but also a good day and my insurance has only gone up £115

I know it won't be to some people tastes but anyway excuse the pic got it of the website:

5 doors are soo much better than the 3 doors, sri 18's would look amazing on that along with a set of tints.

 

[CorsaKen1]

5 doors are alot more practical as I do have a few passengers - and the boot is huge could fit my corsa in :laugh: tints would look good

 

[Tim]

Please say your going to put the irmscher kit on that, them astras with irmscher look amazing.
Have to love the VXR and Thurlby arstras though, especially the thurlby.

[dearing5]

must admit 5door astra's do look a bit estate'ish lol

 

[CorsaKen1]

It is a bit estate - tish and I was not to convinced having a 5 door family car at 20 but I got a good price for it and my car and I'm liking it more and more.

I hated the corsa at first as I thought they were chavvy :shocked: but I like them now and will really miss mine - it's the kind of thing thats grows on you :thumbs_up:

That's nice and I see what you mean now. at first that kind of freaked me out as I thought you knew where I bought the car from :laugh:

must admit 5door astra's do look a bit estate'ish lol

I have to agree i'm affraid But its a great upgrade from the corsa, i'm sure you'll love it :thumbs_up:

first thing i'd do to it though is colour code the chrome grill strip, looks nicer with that done

 

[Tim]

needs lowering

 

[V0NST3V3]

Put some work into it and it could look ace.

This place seems to be turning into AllAstra.co.uk what with laura and now corsa ken

 

[CorsaKen1]

Lodgey - not got the car yet and not to sure about lowering wont that affect the 3 years warranty?

V0NST3V3 - probably do what I did with my corsa first: try and find some inspiration and subtly mod it and I did not really intend on getting an astra it was fate lol

 

[Tim]

Lodgey - not got the car yet and not to sure about lowering wont that affect the 3 years warranty?

Yer anno, was just joking. Technically yer it would affect the warranty, since if something breaks they will try blame it on the car been lowered. However if anything goes wrong just put orginal shocks and springs back on then take it in:thumbs_up:

 

[V0NST3V3]

Yeah anything that modifies the car in any way will cause the warranty to be void. Inspiration can be hard to find somedays, but subtle is the way to go

 

[tse_corsa]

very nice i do like them cars an like lodgy said as long as when you mod it you keep the standard parts if anythings goes wrong you can put it back standard

 

[CorsaKen1]

Finally picked up the car

Eagerly went this morning to pick up the car it is superb to drive and love it picture from today:
