Should i buy a corsa as it`s what i`m learning to drive in?
Answers:
don't worry about that. buy the car you want. cars shouldn't be bought for sensible reasons as you'll get bored and want a new 1 so that's a waist of time. in any case you've got to drive something different some time or you'll have a corsa for ever
No because just because it is the same car its not really the same car ya know. Yeah, you will know where the controls are for the radio and whatnot but cars drive different based on how old they are and how the have been treated before.
I had a motorcycle that was an '01 that I basically learned on, so then I sold that one bought the same exact thing but an '04. Big difference. It handled better, seemed "tighter" if that makes sense.was designed a little differently, etc.
I dont agree. stick to a small car perhaps until your more confident. but any car in the same class will be fine and u might actually prefer somethig like a ford fiesta.
Your driving instructors car is also gonna be the latest model, can u afford a brand new car? if the answer is no then it wont be the same anyway even if it is a corsa.
yea definitly if it is the shape with the back lights down the sides of the rear window if its the older model i wouldnt waste ya money but the new ford fiestas are also a nice drive and well worth a look
no buy a transit van or something like that, all the car drivers move outa the way.
I would start off with a car like this and then when you are more able, I would try to buy a car you dream of. It will not matter which car you learn in, because most cars handle about the same, unless you get into sports cars.
Supose theyre right ,but, as a girl, do you prefere bigger car? Corsa is fine: easy managable, easy to park, economical, with cheap replacement parts
And once youre done with Corsa.if you tire of it :).you can buy Mercedes A class
God no the Corsa is one of the nastiest cars you can get, besides look at how many of them are driven by twatty chavs - you wouldn't want to be mistaken for one of those.
The Saxo aint but better either.
Hi my name is Tim I have been in the "car" buss for 15 yrs my advise to you is buy a car that is familiar to what you are driving but buy one that is not going to cost you an arm and a leg to fix check out a book called "lemon aid" it gives you some ideas on long term reliability ask for maintenance records good luck
Try a load of others first and if the car is S/H get someone who nows cars, not a tyre kicker, to vet it. Steer away from garish colors especially red due to paint fade and heat in the car.
At the end of the day even a cheap car is a load of dosh, well it is to me.
Note that subconsciously a bigger car has a more imposing effect on other motorists and normally can be seen more easily.
Have fun trying different types, go to garages and say can you have a cabby of selected vehicle in a quiet place.
Just tell them as you are unsure of the vehicle you prefer a quiet place to try it.
It makes sense to stick with what you know, so if you are happy with what you are learning in then why not see if you can get one. Corsa's are 2 a pennie so getting one shouldnt be a problem. Do try to get the best one you can afford, and if you are wise stay away from the low spec MK1's as they have no power steering and are very heavy as I learnt to my own cost. Good luck.
You have been told nonsense,you can either drive or cannot.The Corsa is with it I agree but a better car much is the Micra.Should you want to go all the way then buy the latest Toyota Corolla but not the Yaris.None of these cars have a soul as in BMW for example but are good and so easy to drive in particular the gearboxes are superb.Before you fall off your chair in a fit of laughter.The Corolla with a 1600 engine matches the performance of the BMW 1.6 easily.and a joy to drive.Happy Motoring.
If you like the Corsa, then by all means stick with it, but you'd be wise to look at a few alternatives first. All cars are different, but you do soon get used to any differences.
Try the likes of the Toyota Yaris, Ford Fiesta, Nissan Micra III, Fiat Punto, Volkswagen Polo, etc. You might find something you prefer to the Corsa.
corsa not a bad car was my ex-wifes third car, she wrote off the first two, but kept the Corsa in one piece, for sure its a womans car and easy to park
i dont agre with this statment but a small car is a good one to begin with untill you get a lot of no claims discount.
like fiesta, ka, corsa, peug 106,
just a few too look at
I recently drove a Corsa as a courtesy car and hated every minute of it - it was too little and I was too low down.
I now drive a Renault Modus - a mini MPV. It's a great drive!
I'd suggest for your first car, you drive something that is cheap to repair and insure as about 80% of new drivers crash in the first two years of driving, and the average insurance fully comp. is about £1,400 for a new driver.
if you feel comfortble with the car then yes why not
No buy a ford Kia more reliable better car all round.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DON'T GET A CORSA!!!!!!!!
