Lewis Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 I've got a new (to me) car! It's an '06 Corsa SXI+ I don't normally like red cars or 3 door cars but like MY red 3 door car! Achmed Barney my Polo is due an MOT, tax (£215) and insurance (£1800) so would cost nearly as much as the new car so seemed silly not to swap for a newer model with cheaper insurance, esp if I graduate and get a job over Summer and do even more miles than at the moment. Just needs a name now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_H Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 What about Carla (the corsa) ??!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Good for you Lewis. (I have to add that the only red car I had was jinxed... my dad made me sell it as it seemed to attract shunters, mind you, I did a lot of miles in those days).

Luvachicken Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 My first car (2nd hand) was a red Mini and I loved it - mind you that was 20 odd years ago. Then we had a red Nova which ferried all 4 of us around for donkeys years, and now I have a red micra. Red is definitely my colour although all purely coincidental. Be safe in your lovely new car xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
