Vauxhall Corsa Hatchback 1.2i 16V SXi 3d (2003/03) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Ended up paying quite a bit because of the extras. Worth it though
Costs
Excellent MPG in town but quite thirsty on motorways - used more than I thought it would this weekend up to Scotland and back
-
On the road
Driving
Nippy and fun to drive, better than Clio and Ka I've driven. Light steering
Performance
For a 1.2 it's quite quick off the mark but has to be revved quite hard
-
Living with it
Reliability
No real problems so far, but the CD Player is pretty rubbish - the on/off button keeps failing to work unless pressed at least 5 times! Also volume is a little dodgy - turns itself up when you try to turn it down sometimes.
Image
I love it - sporty looking but not too ""boy racer""
Comfort
Lacking in lumbar support so uncomfortable on long journeys but good while in town. Seats are firm, good headroom for my 6' 3'' boyfriend

Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser and deadlocks. Would've liked to see an alarm on this model
Service
Local dealer seems to think women don't know about cars. Not impressed at all!
