i think it will be red if i do decide to go for one. back onshore tomorrow so will go and have a look i think. Just had my nova sprayed black, was red but looks way better black. First vxr i saw was blue and i loved the look of it as arden blue is my favourite colour but the black just didnt seem to stand out to me but seen them all now and like every colour.

went to the garage on tuesday and decided i wasnt that keen on the black, thought about a red one then left the garage still unsure. my dad brought a silver one home on tuesday night which made me decide i am going to get one so yesterday ordered a blue one with 19s but just means i have to wait 2 months and insure my corsa again until it arrives.

why ruin the handling of the car by putting 19's on it?

Because the 18s look crap. The 19s have a much nicer design so worth comprosing the handling for IMO

cause the average person will not notice the difference between 18s and 19s and as people say they do look better. I am not going to be racing it around all the time, got my track car for that.

You tool, 19's are an optional extra. Pretty sure if Vauxhall are handing these cars out on 19's they can take 19's.

I voted black - the v-grill on the erd one just looks too tacky for my liking and ruins the whole car IMO
