Got my hands on my Corsa!

It's an Excite A/C, only the 1.2 - fine for me as I was coming from a Hyundai i20 1.2!

First impressions - what a difference. The whole car feels so much more substantial and chunky, in a really good way. Just so much more luxurious!

Even weirder is the acceleration - the i20 is quicker 0-60 on paper, but I swear the Corsa seems faster, especially pulling away. Also great to have a gearbox that doesn't feel like it's about to crumble when I change gear!

I'm really happy with it, it's a great car - can't fault one aspect. Love it!

Thanks everyone, very kind.

I blame my love of red cars on too many episodes of 'Magnum, P.I.'!

Just a shame I can't stretch to a Ferrari....!

I may be being a bit stupid here ...but what does the A/C stand for? I'm thinking aircon

nice car by the way

Thanks man!

A/C does indeed stand for air-con.....AFAIK there's an Excite without, and the A/C with.

Nive! Congrats! I do like the red. There's an unregistered red one at the dealer I spied when driving past the other day. Couldn't see what spec it was though.
