Anyone bought a new Barina 3 door lately?

[Dee]

i have a 2 year old SXi for sale, only done 36,000km

has all the good bits cos it was built in 2003

I wish I had waited too... and I wanted an auto ... grrr!!!

you wanted an auto...??

Yeah dude, a mixture of being lazy and also I have had four manuals. I wanted a change.

What are the good bits on Corsa's from the 03 range???

[Dee]

* 4 disc brakes (instead of 2 discs, 2 drums)
* silver centre console and surrounds
* leather bound steering wheel, gear knob boot and hand brake boot
* satin finish silver inside door handles and gear knob top (and around dials)
* silver/gray seat belts throughout
* different front and back bumpers (easy to replace holden front badge with opel)
* nicer looking seat material

and im sure there is something i have forgotten...

active headrests is another one

[Dee]

ahh and the fact that it doesnt have 3 headrests in the back that you cant see over

[CJB]

Mine has two rear headrests... it also has a chrome ring around the gear knob.

From doing more research, it's starting to look like the Swift is *the* car of the moment in this segment.

Same price as a Barina 5 door but with more gear loaded in - ABS brakes for me are the big one.

And it is more powerful and has dealer options like cruise control and a stereo upgrade packet. Not to mention the ability to geta model with side curtain airbags.

Is this comparing to the current Barina or the new one being released???

Current Barina. No idea what the specs on the TK Barina will be.
