I know that but its the fact it cant retain speeds on minimal inclines im used to booting my fabia and getting to 70 in 3rd lol


Is it that, or do you not know how to drive the car? You need to know when to downshift to gain control on hills and maintain a steady speed.

This is why I think cars like this are pointless to make. If it cant keep up with traffic and handle a incline, it shouldnt be made. These cars are so damn weak.

Corsas are the worst cars on the road today.

A lot of people say to me why didn't I buy a Corsa when I'm Spending over £100 a week on Petrol.

I bought a rx8 for £2700 a bit over priced but it was originally advertised for £4800 but I with the right haggling with the car being advertised and was for sale in the dealership for over 3 Months and it would of been my first car I got it for that. The compression was 7.5's on front rotor and 7.1's on rear rotor when Normalised to 250. So It was worth it's Money.

Spent £3000 on Insurance. And just over a £1000 for R969 Coils, Toyosports Decat + Catback (Flame Galour)

So for £6700 I got a performance car I love to drive. And Everyone admires.

At the time everyone was Buying Corsas and Audi A1s for £6000-£12000. Which mine ran Laps round and Also for what they were Paying I Paid the Insurance as well.

The Cars are so Overpriced. And also they are a BOS (Bag of ....)

Only problem now is I've put it off-road to save the mods (£500 road tax , £2200 Insurance) it's a worth while decision. But now Looking for a car what isn't a Hatch back for £3000 to buy and getting insured on is impossible.

So don't flame the guy if your from the U.S. You wouldn't understand how much it costs to Drive in the UK. Petrol is at its all time Cheapest ever at £1.05 per litre We need to MOT the car once a year. The insurance for teen lads in the UK is minimum £1200 a year. We have to pay our Roadtax as well.

So even with a Vauxhall Corsa we are looking into a £2000 investment. Over a year.

My second car however I'm looking at Vauxhall Insigina. While Rex gets it Suspension Overhauled
