Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

This is my first ever car and I'd definitely recommend the Corsa as a first car. It's only for me and rarely ever have passengers so the 5 door version is very spacious for me. I find the 1.2 engine a bit small as I regularly do motorways. The driver's seat could also do with more support for the arms so it's more comfortable for longer journeys. I also dislike that the Life model does not have a height adjustable driver's seat. I am only 5ft and have had to purchase a booster seat in order for me to see over the bonnet when driving. The glove compartment is also rather small. Other than that, the car is very easy to drive, reliable and I feel safe driving it. The car feels solidly built. I love the appearance of the car as well; I own one in Black Sapphire. I would definitely buy another one; albeit with a larger engine.
