I didn't think I'd say this but I actually thought it looked rather nice

Didn't get much of a look at the front of it but saw the side profile & the rear & it looked really really nice. Was a black SXI model I think

Despite the pics making it look a lot like a Clio its not that similar when next to one another (there was one in front of me at the time)

A brief moment of excitement in an otherwise lousy day

One pulled out in front of me the other night, it was a SXi in the same colour as Jr's new Corsa and it looked nice, just needs bigger wheels.

I've said that all along, it looks better in the flesh than in pics.

Perrys Doncaster

Meant to be one of the busiest in the country I think? Its a big chain of dealers though which is probably a bad thing!

steve i do wonder why you bother coming on here at all? you are just waiting for your perfect thread to pop up and BAM, start throwing insults/negative comments around because you know people hate it. its very boring mate, you dont exactly drive wonder-wheels do you
