Hey, looks good!

never seen a car like this before. In germany we had the Opel Corsa A, the front looks similiar but it's a hatchback.

[MiNT3D]

Yes, here in UK they're the Vauxhall Nova Saloon

In Germany and Europe they were called the Opel Corsa A TR, they are getting rare now to be fair.

Thanks guys!

Here is another shot to show just how much poke she will have with the new wheels.

**UPDATE**

As i have no plans to sell this car any time soon, i figured that it would be worth me fully restoring the car back to how it should be.
There were bits and bobs around the car that were starting to annoy me when i was washing the car (Bits of rust here and there beginning to come through).

So i decided to send the car off the a very good bodyshop local to me who specialize in body restorations. i have visited quite a few times and i am very happy with the progress up to yet!

Not very often you find these new anymore. i have been very fortunate!
