What does everyone on here think of them?
Just i've been given a 1.2 life as a courtesy car while Vx fix my duff CV boot and i really think it is the worst car in the world. The interior feels really cheap and naff, the clutch bites ridiculously high, there is no rear 1/4 visibility at all and the accelerator feels epicly stiff.
And i could rant on about Vx customer services to, but thats for another day

I have driven loads at work, personally I think they are awful. Not keen on the looks, interior feels very cheap, does'nt feel well put together, the 1.2's are painfully slow, seats are too hard, suspension on non sporty models is too hard.
Only good thing is they feel alot better to drive than the other Corsa offerings, nice turn in etc.

i think thier crap. the dashboard is to long, and the thing that reallly annoys me about them is the passenger seat. you fold it and slide it foreward to let people in the back as usual, then when folding the seat back to its original pos, u have to use the slider under the seat to slide it back again. sooooo ghey.

I had a go in one on the launch day last year and thought it was pretty good. Didn't like the dash being so far infront of you.
Since then have driven alot more variety of different cars and can now see its not really as good as first thought Gone right off how it looks too, can see it ageing quite quickly

not if you do it properly and slide it back before tilting it, much the same as most cars with folding front seats.

Sell loads of them at work... Good cars to be honest, you don't buy a 1.2 to do top speed runs lets face it.. They handle surprisingly well and the diesels are brilliant..

Absolute wank.
My works got 7 as courtesy cars, the 1,2 SXi, one had done 8 miles and the engine was smoking. Another the petrol gauge didnt work, crap and ugly. Interior is like the C1/107, cheap nasty looking dash.
