i went from a 1.2 16v sxi corsa b to that and it felt so fast in comparison. so easy to drive though. gears are realy close together so you can change gear really quick.

I also like the look of these much better than any Corsa C, interior and exterior.
These look good out of the box, where as the Corsa C needs a few (expensive) bits from Irmscher to make it look better imho.
The TDCi's are a good £2k more than the petrols, so you'd probably be better off with the petrol one.

I learnt to drive in a 1.25 LX.
The driving position was fantastic and gear change lovely. I would imagine them seats etc are 100x better. The LX handled better than my Corsa does.
I reckon these are better cars than people think.

No better than a corsa C / D
I learned in a 1.3 TDCi and my sister has a 1.25 zetec by no means either are Zetec S / ST
Nicer to drive than a mk1 focus, which was my dads company car at time I was learning! Jumping from the Fiesta to the Focus, Fiesta was nicer!

Deano you spend way too long looking at completely un-interesting cars, when are you actually planning on buying a car?

when a good ex-mobility motor comes fresh off the market, that really tickles his fancy.

a lads ST i know of has just gone up in flames done 12k its not the first 1 that ive seen do that.
personal opinion, i drove my mums fiesta when i first passed my test it was great fun lovely gearbox handleing was brilliant.
now got a focus mk1 and i hate the thing its just 1 big money pit with electrics, my mums 07plate fiesta may aswell just stay at ford atm.
i couldnt bring myself to buy another ford (personal opinion)

Last thing I would be doing at Uni is getting myself excited over boring diesel fiesta's and the like!
Don't be a tight fucker and just buy something, shock us all and buy a petrol thats shite on fuel!
