Car Deal of the Day: Just £149 a month now nets a top-spec Vauxhall Corsa

One of the UK’s favourite superminis can be had for less money than you might expect

Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 Turbo GS front cornering
  • Top-spec Ultimate trim and 1.2 Turbo engine
  • £2,140 down and £149 a month
  • Two-year deal with options to extend

The Vauxhall Corsa is one of the most familiar nameplates on UK roads - it’s hard to believe, but the Corsa first saw the light of day back in 1993

The latest model is somewhat different to that bubbly original but still deservedly popular thanks to its sensible cabin and wide choice of powertrains, but it can also be very affordable, as today’s £149.39 per month deal at Lease Car UK, through the Auto Express Buy a Car service, shows.

It’s a two-year deal at 5,000 miles per year, following a £2,140.68 initial payment. Maintenance is another £19.86 if you wish to do that up front, while adding miles to the term will cost you around £11 per month for 6,000 miles, or £22 per month to shift that to 8k a year. Longer contracts are also available. The car’s available from stock, so you’d get it almost right away.

The car in question is a Corsa in 1.2 Turbo Ultimate Intelli-LED specification. The name might be a bit of a mouthful, but essentially the 1.2 Turbo engine is a 100bhp, three-cylinder, attached to a manual transmission - remember those?

Ultimate meanwhile means top-spec trim, including everything from heated front seats and a heated steering wheel (not that you need those given our current weather), electronic climate control (much more welcome), six-way driver seat adjustment, a 10-inch infotainment system, 7-inch digital cluster, and wireless mobile device charging.

Intelli-LED you can probably guess, but essentially it’s the Corsa’s top-spec LED headlights, with automatic LED main lights, daytime running lights, and high-beam assist. Again, all stuff you’ll probably feel the full benefit of as the longer nights begin to draw in, but nice to have right now too.
