Hi UCP'ers.
Just thought that it's about time I started a thread about my own car as there's a few things I wanted to ask and to talk about.
It's a 2004 "04-reg" Vauxhall Corsa 1.4i16v SXi Twinport 3-door with a personalised plate (S16 is my Birthday, September 16th, followed by CTR, my initials). The colour is "Ultra Blue' pearlescent.
I've been driving since I passed my test on Friday 13th (Hopefully lucky for some) October '06, so a little over 3 months now, and this car's certainly not what I expected...
...I bought it from my mum for £3,500 (we both knew it was worth £6,000 at the time but she let me buy it cheaper as a sort of 'Birthday present') the weekend I passed my test. She originally bought it pre-registered in August 2004 when it had just 800 miles on the odometer for £7,100. The list on her was £11,500, so we were off to a good start.
So far it's covered 23,000 miles and is in near perfect condition (just a few stone chips on the bonnet from motorway driving, sadly the colour means chips stand out on this car)
Anyway, the car already has a few stories for me to share later. I'm just interested to see what people think of it...
