Vauxhall Corsa Hatchback 1.2i 16V SXi 3d (2002/51) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
A lot of extras as standard. Top stuff.
Costs
The fuel consumption is quite good and consistent at 40 odd mpg. Main thing is the amount of 'free' stuff you get with your purchase.

On the road
Driving
The Wheels add a lot to the driving experience. This makes it so much nippier than the standard Corsa. Good handling and chuckability.
Performance
Lets face it - it ain't a Ferrari, but pound for pound the 1.2 16v twin cam is a little beast - rev it up a bit more and watch it come alive.

Living with it
Reliability
No Problems, or rattles for that matter. Again, cracking stuff, but this new there shouln't be ny problems.
Image
Still looked upon as a bit of limp wristed effort. This opinion, however, would change if people realised it is a completely different car from the old Corsa. Getting better, but not fully there yet.
Comfort
Fantastic sports seats and leather covered steering wheel. Did I mention how good the seats were?

Security and Service
Security
Double locking is a good thing as well as the standard imobiliser, but with the top models getting an alarm as well it, makes you wonder how much it would have cost to make the alarm standard.
Service
Very informative and helpful. Settled queries easliy and politely.
