Corsa C - Slammed, Smoothed & clean Updated 12/02/2013
Well, had my saxo for 2 and a half year, finally decided to get rid, sold it for £1100. Then bought this little beaut, corsa 1.4 16v exclusiv, heated leather seats, irmy sideskirts, splitter and spolier. 1 owner from new, full vauxhall service history, belt, water pump, timing chain ect all done. All receipts for thousands pounds of work, 61k miles, mot and tax, £1950.

Like what you like but I have to question why a car with 61k miles has receipts for thousands of pounds worth of work?

Why do people not like these?
Is it just because theyre not a saxo, same reason people with fiestas dont like people with saxo's etc?
For a small car, they do look really nice IMO.
Looks like a tidy example though mate!

Dont think anyone that has commented actually has a saxo. Or even likes saxos for that matter.

I like them, i just think them wheels dont suit them.. Someone had a nice standard 1.4 16v on my road, had leather interior, was nice..
Looked like that, them wheels suit it much better IMO

I have a saxo... I'm not exactly a fan of saxo's at all. I've got one cause they're cheap and fun cars.

Timing chain, water pump, tyres, every service, belts ect. I'll get some of the receipts and write down whats been done. I loved my saxo, howeever, this is so much better imo

Have to admit, a Corsa does suit a teddy bear dangling from the rear tow hook more so than a saxo

I like that. I'm looking at Corsas atm. Doubt I can afford insurance on one but no harm in looking lol. Love the ones with Irmscher kit one too.
Found this on Ebay other day, love it all, could even put up with the 206 vents on the bonnet tbh.

Calling them irmy sideskirts doesnt make them cool...
I dont like these as these engines sound rough, made worse by the rattle from the timing chain. Only car ive come across that sounds like it.
