Well, it`s a long story!...
Basically, I previously owned a Cinquecento Sporting, and managed to crash the it twice! The little bugger managed to get itself repaired on both occasions, which was really annoying!
The second time that I crashed it, it took two months to fix! Therefore, I was given a 54 reg Corsa SXI (5- door). This is when my quest for a Corsa begun!
I knew right away that this is the car which I wanted to buy! I knew that I wanted the same model, in black, but I wanted a 3-door instead! At the moment, 3-door, Corsa SXI`s in black are like rocking horse poo!
I eventually found the perfect Corsa, on a 03 plate!
What can I say!?...I LOVE this car! It`s fast, looks sporty... and is pretty much damn sexy!
My model came with:
* Alloys
* CD Player
* Twin Airbags
* Front Fogs
* Steering wheel mounted radio/ Cd controls
* Silver/ Aluminum gear knob, door handles and dash
* Air Con with recirculation
* And much, much more!
The car drives really well! The car is that quiet when I`m sitting at traffic lights, I sometimes need to turn the radio down, just to see if the cars still running!
The car is really nippy! It has great power in 5th gear! It has no problem handling around town, on country roads and performs brilliantly on the motorway!
Fuel consumption is brilliant! With both urban and motorway driving, I can get around 130 miles from a tenner!
The interior is really comfortable! My Corsa is a 3-door and I can fit 3 of my mates in there, no problem!
Don`t even think about buying one of these cars...just, buy one...NOW!

Hmm...
I suppose it depends on the Saxo and the Fiesta?
Anything more than a 1.4 in either of those cars and I'm afraid the Corsa's not keeping up, lol.
What's the insurance like on one of those though? I'll be needing to get a car for my wife when she passes her test soon and she'd like a small diesel hatch.
