 Pinster's recommendation | |
Reliable, cheap to insure and pretty nippy.
Parts are expensive if they go as they don't commonly break.
The Vauxhall Corsa 1.7 Diesel is a great little second car mine is white with colour coded bumpers, has done 130,000 but I know this engine can do over 200,000 as I know peoples who have (Isuzu engine). Cheap on fuel, cruises nicely at 90 and top speed of 115 (mph) down hill. My starter motor blew twice costs £20 from scrap which I bought if I had bought brand new I was told £120 (trade price without fitting). Thats the only problem I have had and it has done some miles. Obviously it needes regular servicing e.g oil change & filter and new cambelt. Will be selling soon as I want a coupe, maybe a Toyota Celica GT?
