  • [Corsa B 1993-2000] Arden blue - the daily hack!!

    Picked this up a few days ago for a bargain price (been told not to say how much)

    I know the car pretty well as it belonged to Bradders on here,Was covered in ten tonne of dirt when I collected it, interior is pretty tatty and smells abit dodgy.
    Bought with a running problem, which I'll look into when I can be bothered, but problem last around 2 mins when started from cold then drivers perfectly, so I'm not all that bothered.

    This is just to last me until my car is ready, as I havnt had a car for the laast two winters! I may end up keeping it afterwards for commuting, for now its just a tidy up and maybe some mods.



    anyway, I took it down to get cleaned (I havnt ever taken my car here, but whole point of this car is not to worry about scratches etc)
    some pics after i got it wasahed.









    First job on car, changed the fooked airbag
    from this


    to this

    Which I had as spare from Dragons old car

    Big job done today..


    Since buying the car there's been no numberplate light, which was odd as was a brand new lens on it..

    So I went out there, torch in hand. Screwdriver in other. I'm
    Very good with electrics, so hopefully this will help somebody.

    1. Prise up newly replaced lens
    2. Plug it in.
    3. Relax, job fixed

            Not at all. It's just the daily, I'm not getting involved in a second project, I love parking this up and leaving it without a second thought. Despite fact it's done 140,000 its still very reliable. I'm just maintaining it

                This whole car cost a 1/4 of just my fuel system.

                When you look at it like that, you realise what a waste of money

                  It's not about the money it's about the love.

                              Over 2.5 degrees camber.
                              That must eat through tires.
