This website isn't very good at promoting the Corsa brand is it? I've bought a Corsa I get abuse.
I'm going to Corsa D to talk about panel filters and sidelight bulbs along with wind deflectors
Awful website that.
Still don't understand why so many people slate the D, or often Vauxhalls in general...especially on a Corsa forum. They may not be the quickest but they're built well and are relatively refined. The LE comes with plenty of extras too.
I've driven several different cars recently; Kia Cee'd, Audi A3, Peugeot 308 and a 2.0 diesel Astra was by far the nicest to drive. Good affordable cars in my opinion.

Love the Corsa D. I want a 1.4 SRI facelift.
Don't stick loads of shit on like the weirdos on corsaD seem to do.

And put vxr indicator surrounds on their non vxrs.
They look shite. Surely it should be the other way round and the vxr owners should take them off.

1 thing i hate about them is when they are advertised as having the VXR styling pack which makes them look nothing like a VXR. Never understood that.

2012 models onwards have the darkened ones. The 2011 facelift had those headlights.

Had those daft things on my focus. Some cunt tried to nick one and failed. Ended up snapping half of it though.
They used to be reserved for use only on granny vehicles. Amazing how the youths of today have adopted them.
