Question New Car Help!

Right well, ive got some money coming in... and bored of a saxo... (Sorry lol)

made a little list of cars I like, just wondering what you lot think is good and bad? because the dealer isn't going to tell you the bad bits are they? lol... All the listed cars are brand new, probably be on a 59 plate.



Corsa VXR - red

Astra 1.6 SXi - Red

Fiesta 1.6 Zetec-S - Sea Grey

Honda Civic Type R - Red (probably have to save a bit for the insurance lol)

Honda civic 1.8 GTS - Black

Renault Clio 1.6 VVT - Blue


What would you lot say is the best/nicest car there?

I'm really liking the Corsa VXR at the min, Its only a tad more than a astra 1.6 sxi inc insurance..

Anyone got any of these cars? If so watcha think of them?

Cheeeers

If you mean this fiesta;



Is the one i voted for, as I thought you just wrote "Civic".

But the type R is a beast, get that, or, if that's out of your price range, (insurance) then the fezzy =]. (which of course isn't this one as it's the MK6 new 09' one) /fail.

yeah im not so sure on the corsa vxr i went down to seward vauxhall with every intention of buying one and they are great for the first ten minutes but then you start to notice little things you dont like e.g when in high revs you can almost see the petrol gauge going down, the stupid induction noise it makes sounds good at first and then it just gets annoying, it feels very heavy and the power delivery is atrocious but if you were to get one get the arctic one not a red one there boring

The older model Civic Type R is suppost to be better performance wise. However, the newer one is better on looks. Don't like where the rear spoiler is though, can't see out of the rear window.
