Here's a Corsa Michael Jackson would be proud of, as it don't matter if it's black or white: this limited edition is both.
The Corsa Black & White comes with Glacier White bodywork and a Sapphire Black roof, as well as black 17-inch alloy wheels. To give this limited run Corsa added appeal, the suspension has been lowered for a sportier stance and it comes with a VXR body kit. That consists of front and rear spoilers, side skirts and a rear roof spoiler.
Inside, the Corsa continues the monochromatic theme with a piano black centre console, white air vents and alloy sports pedals. There's air conditioning, cruise control and CD stereo as standard, with climate control, rear parking sensors and Bluetooth connection as options.
The Corsa Black & White may have a sporty look, but power comes from lower in the Vauxhall supermini range courtesy of either a 1.2-litre petrol engine with 84bhp or a 74bhp 1.3-litre turbodiesel. These engines offer 53.3- and 65.7mpg respectively in petrol or diesel guises, with emissions of 124- or 114g/km.
Prices range from £13,995 for the 1.2 petrol in three-door form to £15,400 for the five-door diesel. Unlike the unique Mr Jackson, the Corsa Black & White will be making appearances at local Vauxhall showrooms from June until the end of 2010.
