Im so going to shut up after you posted a picture. Im sorry.
 
Lets get real anyway, Majority of you drive corsa's, What right do you have to take the piss out of any one (That aint at you Pr1CK4Dick)
Fuck me. A comedian. For £580 there are so many much better and well equiped cars out there. (That was for everyone lostinmyownarseholetryingtofindwheremyhamsterwentwhenIsatonit)

1.Marmite. Appeals to a minority.
2. Awesome? A car with alot more mileage with a full service history can be just as good.
3. You hope.
4. You Hope.
5. That is the main thing tbh but maybe could of found something different for less more that has alot more as standard.

I like it.
My mate had one just like it for a toy. He called it the green bean.
It was totally stripped out, cut springs, one bucket seat, harnesses. It was ace. He bought his for £50 and thrashed it for 6 months, and sold it to a scrappy for £40 when he got bored

^^^ thats the price of a run around! i bought a e30 320 bmw for under £150/ a volvo for £400! they are run arounds! id of kept the glanza tbh, you'll loose more money, by waiting till you find a job (which i hope you do) then to buy another one? just my 2p

any car is 1000x better than a bus.
£580, low miles, cheap to run / own seems like what you probably need at the minute.
Great buy and a good move. Good luck in getting some cash back and getting something quick again. 
Anyone would think this is a corsa site or something

super low milage, economical, uber cheap insurance what more can you expect from a cheap car, it looks spotless and would be cool with a let in once he gets a job, i really dont see much difference between this and a sport, 50 quid buys you an interior.
good choice imo mate, my first corsa was this colour no where near as clean though. lol check that gearknob ohhh mine didnt have rear wiper either

i think its awsome, the ideal runabout.
why would you want to be a cheaper car with more miles, and more fancy bits to go wrong? when you could have a basic easy to fix very reliable car, and at the end someone will pay to have such a clean low mileage shell, or he can LET it and even change the colour to keep people happy

Id drive that if i was in your position, although i probably would have not payed more than £500. Corsa is a good call for a cheapo run about, cheap to run and easy to fix. A jap equivalent like a civic or whatever would cost more to insure and maintain/repair.
Is it P1CK4D you have got pregnant?

I wouldnt. I'd much rather buy a £400 Civic with electric everything, some kind of luxury and looks half decent.
do that then. please leave here.

I dont see why people are against this?He's lost his job and bought a cheap car to run compared to a lot more on the market, I think its a good choice mate, why buy a run around that looks good surely the point of a run around in his situation is to get from a to b.

Get some new plates, replace those parts with standard parts, clean it stupidly clean and bring it to PVS
