write a Review about the Vauxhall
Corsa
Built in two unique body styles – a
sporty, low-slung three-door and a stylish yet practical five-door,
Vauxhall’s eagerly-awaited New Corsa is gearing up to inject a healthy
dose of style and driving fun into the supermini market.
Three petrol and two diesel engines are on
offer. Petrol choices will be a 1.0-litre three-cylinder, developing
60PS; a 1.2-litre four-cylinder with 80PS is next up, while the leading
petrol unit will be a 90PS 1.4-litre.
Diesel engines are both 1.3-litre CDTis,
in either 75PS or 90PS guise. Soon after launch, an all-new 1.7-litre
CDTi will appear, with an impressive 125PS and 280Nm of torque.
All of the units are efficient, with the
petrol engines taking advantage of GM’s celebrated TWINPORT technology
to allow minimum fuel use with no compromise to performance. The diesels
are especially fuel efficient, with the 1.3 CDTi 75PS returning upwards
of 70mpg on an extra-urban cycle.

I bought a second hand Vauxhall Corsa 1.3
CDTi for £3k (2nd hand so recycling as well).
Have had a few problems with it but the fact that I get 550 miles for 38
quid makes up for it. Still trying to convince the DVLA that it should
be in Tax band A though. If you look on Parkers website it says it is
but im in a B.
Would be really interesting if I could run it on vegetable oil. too
scared to try at the moment but when it starts to die on me I may give
it a go.
