So basically for my first car I decided to get it on finance, the car is a Corsa LE 1.2 baring in mind I am from the UK so this is quite a common car.


I'm just wondering because I don't know a lot about modifications and cars if the car is on finance am I restricted to modifying my car at all ???


Here is a picture.

If I'm not mistaken it's up to whoever you're financing the car with bro, as I went to finance the same LE 1.2 as you in grey, but I opted out of financing a car so I could buy one.

Been looking at things like first of all de badging the car, No badge grill on front. I also want to make the car sound nicer and change the leds of the clocks and dials in the car.

Yes I think so, by all means you could go ahead and modify your car but if it's a breach of the terms stated by the company financing your car then you could be in deep trouble lol. They may say to you if you're going to pay the bubble fee at the end to own the car then you can only modify it then, it all depends. I've not seen too many new shape corsas with work done to em so I hope you can modify it I'm interested in seeing what you'd do to it!

I think you can only modify it once you finished paying for the finance?

Cool, let me know, also, just a heads up if you get any small modifications e.g air filter don't throw them on your insurance as it will go up a lot.
