Ive had a good few problems on my corsa C as well - it's going fine at the moment though...wouldn't recommend one or buy another from personal experience - build quality is dodgy.

Plan to hold it for another few months and then go for an import - thousands have been imported to Ireland over the last few years so there are some nice MR2's etc going for handy money:)

dont talk to me about the corsa c. it is the biggest pile of junk i have ever owned. i can not be bothered to type the problems i've had with it. at least one thing goes wrong with it a month. its going in again on monday for electrical work.

i've had the car 18 months and 16k miles since new and the following have failed or broke...

1st Trip: Wippers needed replacing after 2 months

2nd trip: squeeky clutch. clutch pedal assembly had to be rebuilt and greased

3rd Trip: Brakes squeled. new rear wheel cylinder needed. original leeking

4th Trip: Heater only worked on speed four. Coil was broken so new was ordered. had to wait for part. fixed eventually

5th trip: Steering coloum rattles. New lower cloum needed

6th Trip: Central locking started unlocking itself. Needed new drivers door solinoid. old one had broke

7th Trip: Main beem stopped working on passenger side headlight. Fuse fine. Bulb fine. wiring at fault.

things i havent taken it back for cause i cant be bothered: Fog lights show damp, and rear light holds water.

It rattles lots. i've never changed anything on it and cant be bothered with it any more. it is cack

Think I must have drawn the short straw!

Its been the unluckiest car ever. Got it July last year, only done 5000 miles and ive had: 2 puntures in rear tyres, chipped windscreen, scratches galore, squeeky pedals and rattly interior. All in all its been a real pleasure! :lol:
