Not bad
Does the BSS stand for "Big shiny sh*te" only joking
Saw a Corsa the other day with a UK reg on Finnish plates! Trying too hard to copy what the VAG/Euro guys do

Looks pretty sweet, similar to the GP 5 spoke sporting alloys

I reckon Antracite would suit

[Brin]

FInished Centre Console few creases need pushing out but other than that its all good!






Calipers Done Gloss Black

 

[Brin]

Wanting the inner bits gloss black and bolt holes gloss black now on alloys aha

done calipers gloss black because didnt want them to stand out much but cant see them much anymore ahabut if sun isnt shinny on the silver alloys they show up great

 

[MFrV1]

If you fancy a change, may I suggest blue calipers?

VXR style.

good taste my man! i was going to originally do them VXR blue but changed my mind dont know why...starting to wish i went fo blue now lol

 

[Brin]

Painted the V grill sapphire black today...fancied a change and this way the grill bars match the bottom grill rather than using VXR honeycomb one got a really good finish on it quite happy

Very nice, love the look of what you've done so far. Subtle yet nice!

I was thinking of an Astra after the Punto, how does it drive?

very well actually...very comfy suspension

engine has a fair bit of torque nice pull for what it is

solid cars mate just get a decent model SXI/SRI

go fast into corners does have a bit of roll compared to what im used to but like i say its standard suspension the punto was dropped on its @ss so could throw it round corners...handbrake is ace on astra though

also maintenace parts are very cheap...but if your looking for styling and aftermarket/VXR parts there a fortune lol

Hmm ...

Torn between an Astra and a Zetec S, both cheap parts, heard they are both nice to drive etc.
