    Good Points: when it works its not a bad little car.


    Bad Points: gear linkage, hydrolic clutch, engine, everything mechanical. very costly for the repairs. as forever in the garrage to be fixed


    General comments: corsa sxi 04 plate
    the only good thing about this car its the body work, well its shape. from day one nothing but trouble, from the gear linkage, to the hydrolic clutch, water pump spec changed, due to a pipe burst, and low and behold, new pump fitted and head gasket blows 3 times in total,within 6 weeks.
    i wouldnt recomend this car if it was the last one on earth. and vauxhall customer care offered 86.00 for the cost of the faulty water pump.

    The Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 SXi isn't a bad little car, with good road holding. 3 door is awkward for rear passengers, so would avoid if you have elderly relations/friends. The car will hold its value and will give good reliability. Timing chain will need replacing at 70,000 miles. Otherwise engine good. Nippy, cheap parts, reliable. Engine noise above average, paintwork quality questionable. MPG could be better.

    Bought my Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 sxi 53 plate (40,000miles) for £3000. Cant say anything bad about it, nippy little car, very fun to drive, handles well, sporty looking. Great first time car!

    I would avoid Corsa's, they are cheap, rubbish and will need a new engine because the build quality is so bad. Vauxhall builds cars to fall apart just as the warranty expires.
    Avoid at all costs!

    Really good car, previously had other cars an nothing compares to it, cheap to run, enjoyable to drive and hold their vaule quite well. Quite nippy too.

    I bought this nearly new and so far have no complaints, the engine although only a 1.2 is very responsive and I can get roughly 350 miles from a full tank of petrol. The power steering is very good and also the ABS. There is plenty of room in the front and the back.
