No they are really on the case !!! Free publicity and a bit of self deprecating fun !!

I think you've somewhat missed the point.

Good stuff from Vauxhall there!

Is it just me but was the first thing that sprung to mind was that thread regarding the yellow Corsa being parked outside those cottages?

[T1berious]

Good work vauxhall!

Could you imagine VW doing something like that?

No, I immediately thought that as well. Well done Vx.

The Article said:

Development of the new accessory from Vauxhall Motors was prompted after tourists visiting the picturesque village of Bibury in Gloucestershire complained that a yellow Vauxhall Corsa ‘ruined’ the view and photographs of the Cotswold village. The photo-bombed pictures picked on local-resident 82-year old, Peter Maddow who uses the car for grocery shopping in the nearby village. Peter Maddow will be receiving a ‘Corsa Camo-net’, free-of-charge from Vauxhall Motors.

FFS - the article even joins the dots for you - so no, its not just you.

Its a good effort from vauxhall to get a few more pictures of a yellow corsa in the papers free of charge.

"It's got a U in it"
"Got it, thanks. CAMOFLAGUE."

Before this story broke I wondered why anyone would buy a bright yellow vauxhall, as there is one down the road from me. Some colours might look quirky in a brochure but are pretty offensive in real life.

[55palfers]

Clever.

[mwstewart]

Like it.

[SteveSteveson]

Well, I suppose, if for some reason I had to drive a Corsa I would want to hide the fact from my neighbours as best I could

Well done Vauxhall, self-deprecating humour is a great way to put a positive spin on your (sorry top say it) dull cars. This really made me smile. Good work

I would have to agree, this is a very dull car

will hide both Corsa 3 and 4-door models

Interesting. I've never seen a four-door Corsa, so it must work very well.
