Maybe situations change? They don't like the car? I don't get why your grammar is so bad.

Before you go for the Corsa, I'd definitely consider looking at the Clio.

i ordered my VXR, waited 6 months for it to arrive and payed £16000.
8 weeks and 2600 miles later i traded it in for a five door astra SRI Xpack diesel as i was having another baby. situations out of your hands change and force unwanted decsions.
also the seats were fcuking uncomfortable

2000 of the miles were long journeys, one being to carlise from brighton.
they were supportive in all the right places, but after about 30mins of driving my lower back was in pain.

that is plenty of time to know if they are good or shite

I'm not disputing they weren't uncomfortable, but was this may be not because the seats were so good, that you were sitting right?
i.e. my dad used to have a Cavalier, with pretty standard seats in terms of the technology put into them. Plus I was at school at the time, sitting slouched and what not on hard, plastic school chairs.
Then he got an E39 5 series, and of course, the seats were better. They gave me chronic back ache, because when sitting in them, my back was actually in the correct position, which it wasn't used to?!
