Welcome along mate. Corsa's aint too bad really. just check for signs of hgf, bonnet rust is common, and no doubt will have the small bit of rust on the quarter where the window line is. Also rust round the rear wiper may be an issue.

Quite reliable if looked after. Is it an Sri you are after?

thanks GSI,

well i went and it wasnt as good as i hoped blow head and rust in all the wrong places,
it was a no go for me, me and the misses has been looking and ill probs go for a astra coupe bit out of my budget and a bit of a swerve from the corsa's, i've seen a nice 2.2 heres hoping its nice in the flesh

Being honest, the prices of corsa c's have fallen spectacularly. You can pick up the comfort (all be it that the 1.0 is gutless) for around a grand now as new as 02 plate.

I would have thought that you can basically take your pick of corsa b's for £700. Seen Astra coupes' go for around £1500 with very average mileage on them. With the corsa C and astra coupe it is a lot easier to drop a zlet in at a later date if you so wished.
