Have you only bought this to seek approval from a corsa website then?

Looks a lot better now Steve just with some decent pics! still think it would look better with the older VXR mirrors, and also a light tint on the rear lights. Look like base spec rear lights.

Test drive one of these yesterday and have applied for the PCH partners deal of £155 down, £155 a month for 2 years.
I can hopefully add to the corsas on a corsa forum

5,000 miles a year, which is fine for me.
It's only something like 4.6p per mile if you go over up to 10,000 miles over.

Assuming that's from Astons? If so my contract states 3.8p + VAT for the first additional 9999 miles then 5.53 + Vat for all additional miles over that. It works out cheaper for me to pay the additional mileage then it does to take out a lease deal for 12k miles P/A
The additional 14k miles will cost £492 + VAT, so say £600. Divided over 24 months that's £25 a month additional, making it £202 a month with the optional 18s. The same with a contracted 12k miles pa was £220 I believe.

That's a cheap deal wonder how much it would be adding the performance pack?

Like the interior improvements in the E but the exterior of the vxr just looks like a LE with vxr wheels

LE doesnt have the same rear bumper, side skirts, rear diffuser/exhausts, spoiler, wheels, or front bumper/vent. Pretty much the only changes any top models have over others.
What other changes would you want

It's just not that nice in my opinion. The older one just before it looked way better.

Those changes still doesn't give it much road presence.
Vauxhall seem to have been too far subtle with the changes they have made and should have made it look a bit more aggressive imo.

If it wasn't for the performance pack option I'd probably want the fiesta too. But the corsa with pp in my opinion turns it into a more focused car to drive.

Where is the rear comparison?
Thats the main let down of the E for me but i do agree when you compare the front ends the E does look better.

To me they all look like the old crazy bodykits people would fit in the 90s. Its almost mynheer styling if you sit and look properly.
