A small diesel engine (ie. 50-60MPG, 1.3,1.4,1.5) and cruise control?
Its gotta be 3 door as well, and not brand new (01-04ish).
Any Ideas? Did the Corsa CDTi come with Cruise?

Someone thinking of getting rid of their VAG?! 
It appears to only be available on SXi as an option, not SXi+, then again, the source is Parkers 
http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/equipment/Summary.aspx?model=1143
The 1.3CDTi in the Corsa D (which has more bhp than in Corsa C) can be mapped on standard everything to 125bhp. Should imagine the Corsa C engine would get near 100bhp.

Im THINKING about it. Due to increase in salary next year, project could be on the cards. Thinking that downgrading the runaround could be an idea.
Failing that, i'll fuck the whole idea off and keep the VAG

Yes it can be fitted, I had a 1.3cdti corsa C, good wee car.
Had no cruise control.
I had to run one wire from the stalk to the bcm and get it programmed on tech2, was easy peasy, i'd not let no cruise control put you off though.
Nice to have yes but also easy to live without.

On todays roads (especially in the day time) Its rare you would use it because people like to drive in your way!

£35 tax for 12 months. Cheap insurance being a 1.3. Bit of torque. Can't beat it imho.
Might have to test drive yours pow

Easily sub £1k. Doesn't go up much for me compared to 12v and I have similar claim 
Roll on next year.
P.S. if you're looking at keeping it a long time, get the SXi+ 'cause you get half leather etc. However, they still seem to fetch a premium. Standard SXi's seem to be the best priced with a bit of spec.
