Selling my corsa, any takers? :P

£100 if you'll deliver and it has MOT / tax

(serious offer, my car is ****ed)

£100 will get you a passenger ride.

Selling my corsa, any takers? :P

Looks like there's no difference, dirt doesnt really show on silver cars - it was filthy

woah, went on to the forum and was totally stunned. Completely unexpected - nice work

please! I'll be posting some of my work up shortly

I'll start up a facebook page and perhaps do some leafleting in carparks. My prices are pretty competitive, just getting starting is the hardest bit. I'll put a link here when the page is up, a few likes would help

You seem to do a good job, and more imortantly, you seem to have a passion for it... Do it!

Thank you, i have tried advertising myself and my services locally but havent had any response yet which sucks. I really do enjoy it for some reason

Quote from [RF]-art555 :

Am I blind and not see a difference in the photo except wiped off dirt or is there something special?

it was nasty grease which i never thought of trying to remove, it was annoying me, so sprayed some engine de-greaser on it and it wiped off. Just another step to getting my car factory-like clean.

dat clio...

meanwhile in ocd land -

i know how you feel - i had my first lesson last week in a new golf, after driving around in a zafira for a little while i was used to the brake pedal having a little bit of travel in it before i felt anything. With the golf, it takes the smallest touch and the brakes come on pretty sharply. 2nd lesson tomorrow, hopefully i get used to it some more

Done a few bits to my little corsa - Debadged the rear and swapped the rear lights for some smoked sxi ones, tinted the rear fogs, sprayed the chrome grille black and put some new numberplates on it.



Just cleaned and waxed it -





pretty decent reflections for a silver car i think. 2 days and i can finally drive it

she's on the road

Quote from k_badam :

these are really realistic textures but i wouldn't download these without realistic snow physics

knobbly tyres with full pressure?

looks nice, but i see dirt!

Quote from 5tag :

Eww... not only does it look weird, that silicone stuff will never completely soak in but happily collect every bit of dust it will make contact with. :thumb3d:

it's Autoglym tyre dressing, says it can be used as an engine dressing too, so gave it a try, shiny

done a few bits for it's MOT; o/s/f coil spring, both anti-roll bar links, brake pads and a n/s/f c.v boot. Oh yeah, middle & rear exhaust and also a washer pump.
Only both rear wheel bearings to do and it'll pass an mot. 2 months until i can actually drive it though..



cleaned up the engine bay abit more
