Wind deflectors are usually found on vehicles that tow caravans

If you put the windows up that deflects the wind really well, standard fitment on most cars too

I really like having wind deflectors, does make a big difference in noise reduction.

Sure did. Was going to go for a 6 month old one but decided to go for a new one for 0% interest. Plus the lifetime warranty.

A 1.4 sxi should cost about 9 grand max and that's pushing it.

14k for a 1.4 corsa thats madness. Fiesta was 8.5k and iirc, the fiesta st is 14k after discounts.

I like it how everyone is quick to judge what someone else is doing with their finances when it doesn't affect them atall.

If he wasn't happy or prepared to pay £14k, he wouldn't have the car. What does it matter to anyone else?

I don't care what he does with his finances, just always amazes me when people come out with what they've paid for a corsa when I know it's about 50% more than it should have been.

You've lost more than 6k on 14k.

Those aren't new deals, they are there every single time one of these threads come up.

Wouldn't have got 0% finance on them though. Anyway was my choice what to pay for it , as said already if I wasn't happy to pay it I wouldn't have bought it. Only owe 2k on it now anyway so in a good position for being 22.

Mrs mum just got 6800 for her 11 plate limited edition against a new clio. If she can get basically 7k for that I'm pretty sure I can get near enough 8.

That's on the website without asking adn even at the 5%, that's not 4k over 3 or even 5 years.

You'd have paid it off by now.
