Opel Corsa Colour Edition in SA

[geniusondemand]

Hi to all,

A quick introduction.
Having driven Vauxhall Astra and Cavalier in the UK about 20 years ago (with Ford, Renault and Hyundai in between) I have now returned with the recent purchase of an Opel Corsa Colour Edition

I drive about 2500kms/month in and around the Adelaide CBD.

Here are a couple of images of similar vehicles (I'd post mine, but it needs a wash.

Although I always like Opel I'd ruled them out due to the corsa being boring looking and the gtc being too expensive.
That's until the day I had finally gone out to purchase something else (cruze, barina, fiat 500 and polo were on the short list but Opel weren't).

"Lets duck in here and have a last look" I said to my wife.
I saw the different shape and Colour scheme of the 3 door colour edition and that was it.

I'm only at Campbelltown...10-15min away (depending how I drive).
Some of the longer term SA members usually get together for a cruise...I'm sure you would be more than welcome to join the next one.
