I'm not saying I would like to drive around it just because I don't like it. Each to their own though and if some dude has spent a lot of time creating something he likes then fair play... one mans pride and joy is another mans pile'o'*&^%
a lot of people on this forum think it's cool to to have a go at someones elses motor because they follow the initial posters in the thread. In this case I can see why as it's pretty horrible IMO, but when reading this forum daily I wish people just wouldn't post what they think others want to hear rather than say what they actually think.
I'm sure some of you cant think for yourself

I'm sure 99% of the people posting negative views of this car are doing so precisely because they think it's a heap of arse. And nothing at all to do with being unable to think for one's self.
It's a pink corsa with bits stuck on it. That's a very limited appeal, really. Except for certain girls and limp-wristed men.
Me too.

I don't like it because it's a VAUXHALL CORSA with a ludicrous paint job. He's fitted a 2.0 Litre Red-Top (probably) because every chav of the land thinks it instantly transforms a Corsa into a supercar-slaying car of EvAR!! And then weighs the whole lot down with bodykit and filler!
The money he's spent on modifying it and consequently insuring it must be enough to have bought something considerably better. And don't tell me he's spent a lot of time creating something individual, cos those damn things are ten-a-penny round here!
... and deffo not to be driven by anyone whos insecure about their own sexuality
Just coz you drive a pink car doesn't make you bat for the other side.
I like seeing stuff like this on the road, just imagine if everyone trundled about in mondeos or beemers smoking a pipe, what a dull world it would be.
The teenage 'halfords ricers' of today are prolly the 750bhp Skyline owners of tomorrow (though I hate to think what colour their gonna be lol)
I don't think there is anything wrong with driving a Corsa, what do you drive ?
What difference does my choice of car make? I don't like Corsas, simple as. They make good shopping trolleys for young mums, but that's it.
You're full of it, it's not your car is it?

I can think of worse cars than a 2l Corsa. Personally I wouldn't go with the Pink but hey if he is happy then so be it.
Well I was asking as mocking a car just because it's a Corsa I'd expect maybe you had something unmockable as otherwise it would be hypocritical. Sure it's fine to dislike them though..
At end of day we can all point and laugh, but the guy in this thread is prolly proud of his creation and thats all thats important as you don't own it. (and thankfully I don't as it aint my cup of tea either
I drive a boring rep-mobile, if people want to mock it I couldn't care less.
You seem to suggest that you can only criticise a car if you have one that is better than it?
Yeah, I have some strange ideas sometimes.. and in hindsight your right.
Was just trying to illustrate they is nothing per-se wrong with a Corsa, in fact it's so bland there is very little to dislike as they just perform the job of traveling from a to b fine.
Of course this guy traveled from a to halfords to b, which does make the car look abit odd lmao

The thing is, half the people that Mock certain cars have probably never driven one. It's all "oh such and such says this car is rubbish so i'm going to say it's rubbish too", works the other way round, look at the amount of people that suddenly buy a cetain model of car on this forum.
No one cares that it's a Corsa that is hardly the main issue here. The fact that it's dressed up with more filler than B&Q and is a puffs pink is.
I've never driven a 2 litre conversion. I have had the *ahem* pleasure of driving a 1.2, however. There would have to be considerable changes to the car dynamically for me to not say it's rubbish.
And as for that certain model of car, I'm pretty sure that nobody here would have bought one without driving it first.
I learnt in a Corsa, nice little cars to drive around town.

Thing is people go mad For Clio 172/182/197 etc etc, which is basically a Clio with a big engine.
Take a Corsa, stick a 2l engine in, change suspension and it's probably a decent car.
We (ocuk motors regulars) probably hate it because it's a corsa.
And we probably hate corsas because of a certain member (name now escapes me, but I think it was gaz, or something) who bought a corsa which had what were basically prosthetic buttocks welded onto the roof.
That sort of thing tends to stick in the mind and make people prejudiced.
