Overview

The Tigra began the trend for pocket-sized coupes. Eye-catching styling economy and a dynamic improvement over the Corsa on which it is based, make the Tigra fairly attractive proposition. It’s also good value for money, particularly for the undemanding driver who wants some small scale style. However, it’s very cramped in the back and well beaten by Ford’s Puma in most areas.
