Crikey! :eek: How deaf can you get?

If he goes that route he is welcome. Just not a very smart decision....although considering he was originally looking at an Aveo, he simply wants something with 4 wheels and an engine to get from A to B, so maybe he deserves the damned thing.
 
No, never change your friendship because of cars. My best friend since grade 6 is a VAG collector. His dad owns some pretty rare DKWs along side some newer VAG products like A8s, RS4s while he has a few VWs. Now I hate VAGs a lot but that's no reason not to be friends with someone who loves them. Had it not been for this friend I would never have experienced the brilliant little 1.4 TSI engine from VW.

In the UK, What Car awarded it 2007, "Car of the Year".
http://digiads.com.au/car-news/late...l_Corsa_Wins_One_Award_After_Anot_200701.html

The growing list of awards the Opel Corsa has won also highlights its outstanding qualities: best small car in ADAC Reader’s Choice Award “Gelber Engel 2007” in Germany, “Family Car of the Year” in the up to 14,500 euros category by the Flemish Drivers’ Association in Belgium, and “Autobest 2007”, the most important car trophy in Central and Eastern Europe. In addition, more than 140 German, Austrian and Swiss motoring journalists named the popular Opel Corsa “Top Car 2007”.

The national editions of “Autobild” in Poland, Serbia and Croatia all crowned the new Opel Corsa “Number 1 Car”. In Romania two journalist associations voted the Corsa “Car of the Year”, in Croatia Corsa won by Croatian Journalists Association and Croatian Automotive Association. In addition, the Corsa was named “Car of the Year” in Serbia and Slovenia.

They are too small for the American market. If they do sell it will simply be because of the halfwits who only buy GM because their grandfather and father drove one.

Awesome. Well lets just hope he goes through with it.
 
Don't know whether it sells well in the States or not, but we're all doomed if we start using the Yanks as a yardstick. Apart from how to strap V8s into anything on wheels, they don't know jack about cars.
