I sure as fuck do. As much as I love this Ibiza, comfort etc - I wish I'd kept my first corsa longer.
My income dramatically increased and I recon I coudl have done alot better with my Arden blue beast. If it ever came up for sale again i'd snap it up. Thinking about it now I could have some proper plans for it?

Car's most famous moment? Getting stuck in the mud at PVS. Involved getting Will to get it out

yep and no.
love the power of the ibiza and its sooo smoth and comfy (plus makes me drive normally dam the mpg thing)
but i loved the feeling i had when i drove the corsa before i started to put back to standard although it never really felt right after someone hit me but still loved it.
if i came into some money id buy my car off my brother again and have it as a project  *fingers crossed i win the lottery*

You should see it now,
It's got "V E R N O N" in chrome letters on the rear smoothed bumper?!?, tints all round, and a sound system louder than an envy club

No kept it for a bit over 2 years which was enough to keep me out of trouble as it was only a 1.2 8v. Only regret is that I should of maybe got a Corsa C instead of another B.

Still have it
EDIT: And can't wait to get rid for something with less miles and more power. But still, I love the 12v

I know I'll want it back. But at the end of the day, I've only got into Corsasport etc since asking for help. I wouldn't say modifying is in my blood - and I have the 12v purely for practicality reasons (quite good on fuel, low insurance, low running costs). I will be on a look out for a new car when I graduate, seen as mine will hopefully be on about 100k 
I should hopefully have about £3.5k when I leave Uni, and that will hopefully get my a half decent 1.7CDTi C

1) It's my first proper car.
2) In 20k miles in 18 months, it hasn't put a foot wrong. It starts old cold mornings first time. It just doesn't seem to break. Although, there are some nasty noises on full lock 
I know people with better cars that just have loads of problems.
