    I love these forums, full of self righteous *ricks, the op asked about price, not a judgement from somebody who knows nothing about them.

    Well its pretty easy to make a judgement about someone who needs FRONT parking sensors in a car that has maybe 3ft in front of the windscreen and plenty enough visibility to make judgement easy.

    And there's a reason that the Corsa is a very popular driving school car and it is everything to do with its all round good visibility.

    Hammyman is/was a professional HGV driver who "has never had an accident" except for the one that he doesn't mention.

    Which accident is that seeing as it is oft claimed I have?

    Put up or shut up.

    I have free parking sensors... eyes. If unsure i get out and look, far more reliable!! my bro-in-law had parking sensors that one day broke (how would he have known) so he hit reverse then SMASH!

    If you get sensors, please continue to use your eyes/common sense...

    There's a problem with "common" sense

    The one where you were asked if you had ever reversed into anything and you replied that you had.
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark
