Road Test

Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 SXi 5dr

Test date 01 June 2006  Price as tested £11,015

It is said that time never made a bad car good and while we have never claimed the Corsa to be an actively undesirable car, we were aware even at its launch six long years ago that it was far from being the pick of the hatchback crowd. And despite a mild facelift in 2003, you can perhaps imagine that the replacement of almost every competitor since then has done little to bolster the Corsa’s standing in the shopping hatch class. Mercifully it is on the verge of being replaced and, as we shall see, its offspring will arrive not one moment too soon.
