Tastefully Modified Corsa!

£7k? Bargain.

It amazes me how these kids think because they've spent so much bolting crap to their cars that they're actually 'worth' £7k, and that someone out there will part with that much to have it on their drive.

I could curl one out on my drive right now for free and it would look better, then spend £7k on the Integra I've always wanted.

Tastefully modified by what? A blind leper? Oh no, wait, it's been modified by a used cotton bud covered in ear wax!

Why knock it
The work looks like it been done technically fairly well, whoever owned it obviously enjoyed doing it.

Who are we to mock?

People with taste! Or at least people with enough sense to see that any amount of cash spent "modifying" a 1.2l corsa is a waste of time, money and resources.

7 grand? Could buy a brand new car for that.

Ah but taste is subjective, in my opinion its hideous but when did I or any of us become arbiters of good taste. We all have taste but some peoples is less conventional

Ok, so dismiss my "people with taste" sentence. Doesn't get around the second though does it

I don't think the one in the link is that bad. Shoot me now

Not for me but for my GF or daughter (they are both chavs sadly)

I think it looks good too. Its not to my taste, but I can appreciate just how much work has been done. Awsome paint job too. You could probably sell the kit in that car for more than the asking price! Tv's in the rear seat head rest. Whats that for, the driver behind.

Think what you could get for 7k.

The bloke that owns it has spent a lot on it. I think in the region of about £15-20k.
I think his car has had at least 2 different colour resprays in the past as well as having the front bumper styled differently. AFAIK the last mod he did to it was that 'grey thing' on the bonnet.
Almost forgot... the car has an electronic fake dump valve as well.

It would appear whoever owns that has more ASBOs than GCSEs
