Looking at one of these for a daily driver, does anyone know if limited edition corsas are Flame red or Magma red. The colour choice is given as Magma Red & Black Roof on the configurator but the pics in the gallery say flame red. Also does anyone know if Magma Red fades the same way as Flame Red. cheers

Is this the 1.2?

I've driven a 1.2 a few times as a courtesy car to where I take mine for a service. The speed reminds me of the 1.0 in the Corsa B. Woefully slow. Comfortable once at motorway speed though.

These cars get called a "limited range" if the mirrors are extra reflective

they are magma red, we sold more of them than any other spec. I think an SRi/SXi are more limited edition than them!

Technically they're not lying, the number of cars is limited by the amount of metal in the world.

Speed is not an issue it is as daily driver. I have more than 1 fast car for speed already.

No they stopped doing them a couple years back.

Biggest petrol version you can get now without it being a vxr is the 1.4 100bhp.
