Made famous by the Channel 4 programme 'Grand Designs' in the UK by one of the owners of the houses being built, a Five Star Fur Lined Ocean Going Balls Up means that something has been a major catastrophe from start to finish, a complete and utter screw up. This is possibly just the perfect thing to say when something has gone just about as wrong as it can!

Small compact range of european hatchbacks and saloons which were introduced in Germany in 1982 as Opel Corsa and Vauxhall Nova in Britain in 1983, this was then replaced in 1993 with an all new car which took on the european name and remains in production to this day, 2 new versions on. These cars are invariably owned by Neds or chavs depending on which side of Hadrians wall you are from. Your typical older Corsa will sport a very large bore exhaust which looks like a catering size tin of beans and makes the vehicle fart, it will have aftermarket alloy wheels which look absurd and are about as tasteful as a frilly toilet seat, normally has a spoiler on the roof that looks just like an ironing board, a body kit that looks like a 5 year old designed it, which incidentally is normally cracked and has smears of fibreglass paste on it, it will usually be adorned with stupid 'lexus look' taillights which are poorly made and let in water and just look crap! All of this and you'd think it was some 200BHP firebreathing monster, right? Nope! We are talking about a lusty 3 Cylinder, 973cc, 52 BHP powerhouse! The ultimate acoutriment for the tube about town!
