corsa embarassment!!

[Dave]

finally got paid for the claim by the crowd that dropped a metal barrier on the car and my P&J is in the body shop getting sorted but i got a lend of an opel corsa, not only that but it has max power stickers on it and has one of those cheap looking body kits and gold alloys. and talk about a shock when i drove it, my car is a ferrari in comparison, it was like driving a jeep with a crap gearbox, fairly similar to a bus i would imagine and i wouldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding!! and the only thing that it doesn;t have is tinted windows so i couldn't hide my head!!
things we do to get to work!! should have just taken the bus!!

And a manual V6 would be like a Ferrari to the GS. Well my tip GR is like a Ferrari to my old tip GS anyway........

[Dave]

too true but you didn't need to point that out i was just happy to compare mine to a corsa!! ah well at least it looks the business

[CJ]

Dave, it was just a matter of time...

yeah i know

yeah i know

And you're right it does look the business. I've really taken a liking to the front lip and the leather is brilliant. Sometimes I wish I had the conviction to do something similar to my GR but I think I'd need to get a manual GPX/GPvR before spending like that on the car

[Dave]

see it's handy for me to do things like that, with no mortgage and a case of moving home to the parents for a while i've some spare cash lying around.

I read the thread title and thought that you had been beaten by a Corsa - I was going to demand your expulsion.

[Dave]

oh god no, if that had happened i wouldn't be telling a soul!!!

oh god no, if that had happened i wouldn't be telling a soul!!!

just quietly goint out and buying a manual GPX, GTR33/34 or something siimilar

[Dave]
