I would rather have the corsa to be fair, but that's just me. Drive them both, see what you think, buy which one you like the most, at the end of the day it will be your car to live with, non of ours. Hope you get a good one

ive owned a corsa GSi and a mk1 VTR love both cars tbh for different reasons.
VTR handled amazing and is a right laugh to drive
corsa looks better. quicker in a straight line just bit larger inside

Why? I can't justify why some would buy a much older engine for the sake of 3bhp, which won't be noticeable if you tune it anyway.

corsa is comfier, bit quieter to ride in
Saxos handle like a go kart, breaks dont seem to bad to me

Ok. So we have worked out that the saxo's brakes are bad. What do you have to do to them to make them good?
