WHY YOUNG DRIVERS SHOULD BUY A1.4 TURBO CORSA E - Review, Insurance, Running Costs, Financing

Why young drivers SHOULD buy a Mercedes Benz 6.3l AMG

[@dawidtf]

Niall Smith no such thing

[@bradbaker9128]

dawid up until 2014, Mercedes C63 AMG were 6.3L

[@jackshotton9222]

Brad Baker No they weren’t, they are badged 6.3 to recognise the old racing 6.3 AMGs.

[@planes124]

Why finance when u can buy a older car for your first car then after few years get a decent car.

[@zaink7037]

I'd personally agree with you. Being young your more likely to accidentally dent or damage the car. Best to get a older cheap car so you don't worry too much if that happens and no worry about the finance company

[@X774M]

Thsts what I'm doing i might downgrade my car so I can mod it a bit

[@vx4716]

they do make a corsa E GSI although quite rare since it came for a short time out in late 2018 til the end of the corsa E in 2020 when the F replaced it. The GSI stood in for the corsa vxr when it got discontinued and this removed the Colour editions of the corsa E as the GSI shared the same engine and was made as the new performance Corsa since the VXR brand was taken away after Peugeot/Citroen Group PSA purchased Vauxhall.

[@ArchieMakuwa]

Only let down was the power for me and I suppose the 3 doors. I ended up getting the 4 door 1.4 turbo. It's not a bad little everyday car. The GSI would have been really nice if the power was upped up a little and it was really expensive when we got it in South Africa, so it didn't make any sense (due to the engine).

Yeah you put down 1.5K, pay £140 for 3 years and then have to chuck down a lump sum of like 6.5K to keep it or you give it back. Can think of dozens of other cars if rather have for less than half of that which would be what.. anything less than 6K?

Aaron hmm, if he’s running 170 on a stage 1 then stage 2 you could expect with the supporting mods maybe 200bhp?
