... what was it, how long did you own it, and why did you sell it?
The corsa was my first car, owned for over six years now and still do so can't answer the last question atm. However, in between the six years I have also owned a Renault Clio rsi, Fiesta xr2i and saxo.
How bout everyone else?

White Nova 1.3SR 
It had cav rims, lots of ICE, eyebrows, K&N and a big sunstrip 
Jesus how my tastes have changed. I was the coolest cat on the block though at the time lol
I owned it for just over a year and sold it because I was going to uni - someone got a fucking bargain

I had an Atlantis Blue Corsa Spin 1.2 8v. Bought it in 2001, sold it in 2004 cos I wanted a newer one and got sick of the slowness of it too. Traded it in against my current Corsa. Still miss it sometimes

Flame red 1.2 8v corsa! Bought it cos it was cheap & a corsa which is what I'd set my heart on. Sold it after a year because i wanted one that was faster & a better colour, so I bought a black sport. Would still have that one except some numpty ran up back end & wrote it off but with a slightly newer & better spec black sport!!!

Mine was a 1.2 Nova Swing, which was the poor mans version of the GTE, it had GTE interior, spoiler, bumpers but with a 1.2 8v carb engine
Then i got fed up of having to use the manual choke so after 6 months of ownership i part exchanged it for a 99 corsa sxi, which i had owned from december 02 to may 05, then bought the GSi in may 05
