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

Economy
Value
They seem to hold there money better than other small cars but they have come down a great deal now the new model has been out for a few years, but I would pay that bit extra for a nice one.
Costs
Mine is a 1.2 costs £20.00 to fill and lasts me weeks on end, it is group 2 insurance so there isn't many other cars cheaper there (none worth considering), super once again.

On the road
Driving
Super Road Handling, I have driven Clios, 106, Polo, Micra, Saxo and none match the Corsa for its driving, mine isn't power steering and to drive it you would think it was as it is so light and is a pleasure to drive!
Performance
Not the fastest in the world but I didn't buy it for its speed but it will more than hold its own on the motorway and it nippy on the takeoff.

Living with it
Reliability
Never let me down, starts first time every time!
Image
I would say that it is better looking than the new model, also is a lot faster than the new model as it isn't as heavy and doesn't look out of place on the road, great car.
Comfort
Great, nice comfy drive can't fault again.

Security and Service
Security
I have central locking on mine (an extra with the Vegas) but I have also has a alarm fitted just for piece of mind really but touch wood I haven't had any problems.
Service
I haven't had much dealings with Vauxhall only for parts and to be honest they aren't the most friendly with the parts so I would think that they will be nice as pie when your looking for a new car and then they don't want to know if you have any problems!
