Sammy i think the newer corsa's are a whole lot better looking,
infact you should save and get one since the 2007 corsa's here you might bag a bargain on 1 £3,000 or less
Vein, my next door neighbour has one of them he's a old guy and he doesn't take care of it cos the sun has bleached all the bonnet!
Wish i could drive,
I do like the old ford focuses
even tho there too big for a first car

My first car was a 1982 Series 3 Mini City E 1000cc in Nautilus Blue. Paid £75 for it. Learned to drive and also passed my test in it. Loved the car. Had it for two years before it got written off in an accident.
I now own a 2002 SEAT Leon 1.4 16v S with a few modifications. Owned it for just over a year now. Paid £5000 for it.

SXi doesnt come with air conditioning as standard but mine has it. It also has the lowered and stiffened suspension from the SRi that the 1.2 version doesnt have.

Yep I was in a hurry to find a pic of the Focus that one caught my eye
well in theory the car is the same as we have here in the uk
btw I do think there nice cars still there newer version looks too big I am not too keen on it one bit.
I think it would take me a longtime before I can get a focus I have to learn how to drive then build up my stats....
so will have to start of with something like a 1.0 or 1.2
the SXi Corsa lags the air-conditioning unless specified what were vauxhall thinking off at the time? all cars need that standard now
btw my mates car is pretty nice it has electric windows, CD Player and is pretty nippy
looks like that above but it's the dark silver and it hasn't got allows but proper Vauxhall Wheel trims.
anyone got the 3 door Astra new one?

The spec of my Corsa is quite good:
CD player, Driver and passenger airbag, Electric windows, electric heated wing mirrors, air con,sports seats, lowered suspension, remote central locking etc.
I have driven the new 3 door astras (sports hatch) and thought it was really nice to drive and they look great.

better picture of a sport hatch -
missUK, how old are you out of interest? im 21 and just getting to the end of my lessons/test. i can get insured on anything and including a 2.0 focus zetec, for a little more then £1200. which isnt bad for a first car really. goes down a hell of alot just because im 21
i found this car the other day, i really wanted to buy it, but my rents talked me into not buying something untill i pass my test
yes that is totally standered, someone got the optional 17" alloys lol
