    Yeah, no new A class car is that small! I saw a new Corsa next to a '94 Mundano and the Mundano looks about the same size! That's 2 classes different in 10 or so years!

      I was reading in a vauxhall mag that the new Corsa C is the same size as the old MK3 Astra?????????? Mad! Don't think there is such thing as a smal car anymore

              Ever seen a Peugeot 306 parked next to a 308? Now there's a huge difference.

              308 2.0 HDi = 1483kg
              Audi S2 Avant = 1510kg(-ish?)

              A small family hatch compared to a medium/large estate car? Not much in it.

                Good to see they stuck with the funky swirly numberplate on the new version though...

                  I just assumed that was an Arabic plate

                    I believe that on pre 1984 Arabic plates the swirl goes the other way

                      Is that because of the coriolis effect?

                          Don't see the problem both fiat cars should be flushed down the loo for being rubbish.

                              maybe because of the crumple zone? and all the power steering and air con stuff under the bonnet? and offcourse everyone now measures the boot space.
