All depends really. They are a bit rattly, but not exactly unreliable. Sometimes you get unlucky though. VTS would be the best choice for £1500 imo.

Nothing wrong with reliability of a VTS, just the build quality. Much more fun than a GSI but I'd not convinced your get a semi decent VTS for 1500.

saxo will probably be more reliable than a xe corsa, most arent done right so your better off with a standard car.
saxo will be a very good car standard, there not unrelibale, but a lot have taken abuse so will have problems same with any other car in the universe but so many people will slate them because there mates sisters ex boyfriends son in law had one that blew up every mile..
good cars a lot of fun for the money, will outhandle lots as well, would be a good car

all cars are unrelaible if abused through thier life. Each car is individual. Corsa's are no better than the next its just the biased views on here . If you try SSC am sure thier views will be biased too, id have a saxo over a corsa
