“Corsa 1.4 SRI”

★★★★★

written by HarleyHickman on 09/04/2014

i bought my bog standard corsa 1.4 sri about 4 months ago and being a teenage boy ive moded the car. the car has 90bhp standard and im now pushing 130bhp. i have chipped, mapped, cammed and also turboed it, and also added i full scorpion exhaust system, vipor indution kit and GSXR throttle bodies. over all the car looks and sounds amzazing and is a little pocket rocket.

“Corsa 1.4 sri happy but slightly apprehensive on...”

★★★★☆

written by Tarlyt on 27/08/2011

I recently bought my first corsa which is an 03 1.4 Sri. Absolutely love the car and in all very happy but noticed after like a week of buying the car the egr valve was faulty, easily remedied by blanking it off with a plate bought on eBay. 5 quid. Still feels slightly laboured when accelerating. Wonder if expecting too much but as I read other reviews on the car people seem to shout out about performance of this car and I'm just not seeing it. Don't get me wrong it's not proper slow but just not really living up to the Sri badge it's been given. Any ideas on anything that will help the car perform to full potential? Ma y thanks

I bought my first corsa which is an 09 1.4 Sri 5 door. Think it is over rated the car. Feels very laboured when accelerating, and very slow to take off from t/lights. I wonder if expecting too much but as I read other reviews on the car people seem to shout out about performance of this car and I'm just not seeing it. Don't get me wrong it's not proper slow but just not got it, had more power and performance from my 1.2 clio

★★★★★

written by on 05/09/2010

i own a 94 mreg 8v 1.4 corsa sri. I have a cat back with racing exhaust, pipercross intake kit, re-mapped twice, upreated braked.
i've had 125mph, without red-linning it. easily kept within around 3 car lengths to a 1.6sport 16v corsa. so not that bad.
ideal first car to whip around.

“Had this car a while now and it doesn't always get...”

★★★★☆

written by on 07/11/2009

Had this car a while now and it doesn't always get driven lightly. I've had to change the water pump and the front discs and a track rod end in the time I've owned it. Nothing else apart from oil and petrol. It's only played up once when the EGR valve got bunged up but that's an easy fix, drive 67 miles in 1 hour. :) Or you could clean the valve with carb cleaner. Have around 115 on the clock, 0-60 dunno but I smoked a 1.8 vectra. Engine still is quiet as the day I got it. Overall I'm very happy with it and I'll be keeping it until it's no longer viable to run it.

“Amazing first car! ”

★★★★★

written by on 03/10/2009

Amazing first car!
Yes, it's quite expensive on insurance, but then again im only 17. Runs really nice and everyone who's seen it has said how nice it looks. Speedy and good for fuel.
I'd reccomend this car to anyone!

★★★★★

written by Marcus1912 on 25/06/2009

Ive had my 1.4 SRi twinport since feb now! I had it for my first car and its brilliant! Reasonably quick due to having 90 BHP! Everyone i know says it looks soo much better than their corsa's and i agree with them. The only problem i have is its quite expensive on insurance as im only 17. Other than that i cant fault it! it is reasonably economical as im getting 28 MPG out of it!

“M Reg Corsa B 1.4 8v SRi all the way for first car... ”

★★★★☆

written by 8vNeilSri on 20/05/2009

M Reg Corsa B 1.4 8v SRi all the way for first car...

Lowered on Spax adjustables.

Cav GSi Wheels sprayed black - colour coordinated to car (good option looks the part)

Uprated front disks and pads - braking is v.good

Wire tucked engine bay

4 Branch manifold / full system 3" pipe - sounds beautiful nice note

Front and rear OMP struts - keeping the car rigid

Battery relocated to boot

Handles a dream and is quite torquey!

Few questions;

Is a fast road cam + ECU re-map worth the ££

Can anyone suggest a good website for a decent yet reasonable cost for a standard looking, carbon bonnet ? (no vents or scoops)

I have a 55 reg Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 16v corsa. This is my first car but I can say this is a great little car, great for posing about in. Get a k & n induction kit and a exhaust will sound the best!

Asked by GillHM on 27th December 2013 Report this content
Hi. My daughter recently had a problem with her Corsa SRi and called out the AA guy who fixed the problem but when looking in the engine found that the back of the engine compartment (which divides it from the dash board) was so rotten that he could put his fingers through it. He said she shouldn't be driving it as it wasn't road worthy and needed a lot of work. She can't afford a big repair and the car is an 04 plate so don't know if it's worth spending money on. Have you heard of this problem in any other Corsas. Is it worth contacting Vauxhall customer support for advice? If this is due to a design fault maybe they would help. Thank you.
