The time has come for me to depart, However i may be back one day ... Purchased a Vauxhall Corsa Limited Edition in Sunny Mellon Yellow :slayer:...

why is the bonnet a different shade to the wing?

Its just my phone camera

Out of interest what made you go to a Corsa and not another Fiat?

Can you get a limited edition Corsa??

Not a Vauxhall fan myself but the black wheels look quite cool

Good luck!

Saw it and liked it, no other reason than that

Funny question that! I believe the LE was limited to 1,500 cars but due to high demand they went way over that so many owner's were not happy with there not so exclusive deal lol I do see a lot of them on the road, pretty nice cars I just can't stand the interiors!

To the OP, I hope you purchased an extensive range of detailing products to keep it looking yellow! That's going to be fun and start by colour coding or blacking the chrome grill imo

Well, at least it's not another white with black alloys on a 62 plate that every 18 year old now seems to have... :yuck:

It was between the yellow limited edition or a green SXI with the linea pack

Definitely made the right choice! I do love the grasshopper green on the VXR burgs but I don't think that white goes with it at all! :yuck:

Have you got any plans for the new car?

Get my private plates on, get smoked headlights, front side windows tinted, LED sidelights and number plate bulbs, Xenon bulbs, speaker upgrade

You sold the Linea GP for this. Oh Swaineeee :yuck:

All the best to you though, bad call hahaha

Engine??

As far as I know these are 1.2s. If so, for the price of these you can get an absolute monster. I know someone who bought a brand new Arctic edition 1.2l for 12k. For that price she could have got an absolute beast of a car.

Each to their own, all the best for the future man.

Yeh it's a 1.2, nearly bought a Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo 1.6TDI, but we have 4 corsa's in our family and not one has had a problem (touch wood). Took a deposit for the punto today too.

Thanks everyone for the advice in the past... Who knows, this car might appear on here again!

I feel sorry for anyone with that 1.2 it's truely asthmatic however not nearly as woeful as the 1.0!!! At least it's got 4 cylinders

A 55bhp 1.0 3 pot hair dryer in a car that weighs 1200kg... Come on Vauxhall!!

I had on holiday the 1.4 95bhp Corsa and was also really gutless and terribly slow...

Would of been better off the 1.3 M-jet ermm I mean CDTI 95. They shift well in a noisy manner.

My Sister had a 1.2 Corsa Club (AC) on a 56 plate (one of the first of the current shape) and it got to the point where you wanted to get out & push to get it upto 60.

Had many Vauxhalls in the family (Mk2, Mk3, Mk4 & Mk5 Astras, Mk1, 2 & 3 Corsas, 3 Cavaliers, 3 Vectras, a Zafira and a few vans including a Vivaro) and they've all been ok until the ones made in the last 10 years (56 plate Corsa and 07 plate Vivaro especially). Electrical problems, gearbox rebuilds, poor trim and absolutely woeful customer service from Vauxhall GB.

However, the Corsa and Punto share a platform and have been around in current form for the same length of time yet the Corsa is still in the top 10 best sellers in the UK and you're lucky if you see one new Punto a week, so Vauxhall must be doing something right. They do look pretty funky in those colours too, but it'd have to be a CDTI (Multijet) engine for me, just to keep some Fiat connection, and to make sure I reach 60mph this side of Christmas

I was going to get a 1.4, but they don't do it in the limited edition. I only ever do city driving so don't really need anything bigger.
