a car I have always had a soft spot for, so after looking for some I found one what caught my eye, so got on the phone and arranged to go and view, after a 3 hour drive there, it was time to find out some more info on it after reading through a folder full it was time to hit the road, so off we went, everything seemed to be ok, anyway driving slowly for a little while the lad i got it from decided to give it a little to say the least i was pinned back in the seat and smiling ear to ear going from a corsa 1.2 sxi to this was an amazing feeling, well after he showed me what it went like he said i could drive, automatically getting into the drivers seat i went to move the seat forward but they were fixed luckly it was perfect where it was anyway I fell in love it was coming home with me after coming back down the motorway will boosting noises I just couldn't stop smiling, after getting the car home and driving it for a short period of time i knew where i wanted to go with it, so this is where the build began, Im around 4 months into the build so i think its time i start a build thread but its still only early days!A photo of my corsa (first car)Over this weekend im going to upload everything to where i am now with it!Anyway here is a couple of photos of my V not long after i got it Car Spec when I got it:Gabb shocks and springs lowered to a reasonable levelGreddy strut braces
