How shit my corsa really is 
Had a drive in a Saxo VTR, first time I've really driven a car with PAS. So, so much nicer to drive than my dungbox. More comfortable, much faster, looks nicer, handles better...
I need to get me a 1.4 sport soon, or else I'm joining club Saxo.
Lesson of the day: 1.2 8v poverty spec corsas are total shite, buy a decent one to start with

yep is definatly true that's why I got rid of mine, pas is ace after driving the corsa and so is extra power and other acessories the corsa never had - tbph mine was actually dying a slow death

For the first two years of driving before getting my Xsara VTR I had a 1.2 8v corsa 'merit' and a diesel Polo 6n I should have just cut out the middle man for those years and walk everywhere

Yep, my mates furio is in the garage everymonth having something do as soon as he gets paid as it is constinly breaking (In the last few months its been, clutch, power steering pump, Air sensor,) and he doesnt even drive it hard!
But yer the 1.2 8vs are actually shit lol the only thing they are good for is realiabilty - they just keep on going and going. I know someone who use to redline it in everygear (you have to really) for 2 years, use to run around with 0.5 of a litre of oil at some stages, and it did 138k and still was running strong lol I thort that was impressive!
