£22k for a Corsa? Am I missing something here?

Look better, £5K cheaper, will handle better, more of a drivers car, no 'baseball cap' image...

Looks and price is a fair shout but the handling/driverside of thing you surely can't tell as you've never driven one have you?

you will never paythat though
List price for the previous VXR was around 18k with 18's and I got it just shy of 13.5k brand new

you cant seriously tell me you walked into a dealer and they just knocked 5k off it, i know what dealers are like especially main dealers, they are all tight as fuck and its hard work just to get 500 quid knocked off as ojc found out when he asked about that mini.
They are all the same too, i think this is yet more internet based rumour nonsense
if you did get it for 13k there must have been something else you arent telling is, part ex, or maybe finance with large interest or something, or maybe hire purchase
in the real world i reckon if that corsa is listed at 22k, then you will be hard pushed to get it down to 20k max

im already over cautious with what gets said on the net, i think im going to actually have to consider everything that is posted on web forums to be not true

I consider myself to be able to talk the talk and all that shit but in the last 4-5 cars I've bought from dealers a few hundred quid discount here and there which they usually get back elsewhere in the deal is all you get. £5k, was it Cat D and they didn't tell you

That orange colour is stunning. The interior looks mint and finally, some decent brakes!!!
However the price? Thats a bit strong for my liking

True but let's face it no amount of suspension trickery is going to make a cCrsa out handle a Clio. Look at the pics, it's taller than it is wide for a start

The other really annoying thing about these is the throttle. I drove a VXR Arctic and when the revs built up to the redline and you changed gear, the electronic throttle would 'blip' the revs everytime. Annoying.

Fair doos. I suppose people will only find out once they put the 2 together.
