I picked this up yesterday, and have driven 100 miles so far. Pretty pleased with it.

Interesting cars these - I bet they're fun to hustle.

I can't help but feel with both this and the Fiesta ST, that if they'd just shave 20mm off the top and add that to the width of the car, they'd look much more purposeful.

Nice car though OP.

Is that a 2nd facelift of the Corsa D or a new Corsa E?

I'd certainly have one - those cheap £160/month leave deals were very tempting

Thanks chaps.

It is a Corsa E with optional metallic paint, 18" wheels and the 'carbon pack'.

The cabin is a nice place to be with half leather trim Recaros and a few other toys.

Got any pics of the seats? Vauxhall tend to do a very good job of them in their Superleggera Performante Edizione Tecnica versions.

It's officially a corsa e but is actually a heavily revised corsa d

First time I've ever seen a new shape VXR, tbh I didn't even know they were making one, I hate to say but I think they've slipped up heavily on this one, the last one had mad vents and flares which looked pretty good given it was a VXR model, this one looks like stretched Adam from the front and a standard Corsa from the back, very disappointed given what they could have done to it, minus the VXR badges I'd struggle to tell it from a standard one

Personally that's why I really like. It's more understated and will hopefully draw a better crowd. The old one had a bit of a bad image associated with it and I think this could reverse it. The Fiesta ST and Polo GTI could almost blend in if it wasn't for the big wheels and badges, the same as this.
Really like it OP, enjoy!
