  • Wondering what car to buy as a first car? I'm not because I have a Golf. However, if you're not quite so settled in your choice then this could be a great option - a Vauxhall Corsa! It's a great little car (mostly) and I go over it all in the video to hopefully help you decide whether it's the (first) car for you. Hope it's some help and hope you enjoy! This was a good fun video to film and I must say a HUGE thank you to Ben who allowed me to film his car and went out of his way to be an absolute beast, making this whole video possible. Massive thanks to / @tioram . for his help too, expert videography as usual, make sure to check out his channel via the link above. Like I say at the end of the video I may continue the first car series, let me know if you want anything in particular!
    I'm also not liable if you do buy a corsa and it blows up, consider this some unprofessional advice from your mate (tho I don't think corsas are too well known for blowing up, so should be all good).

    Just ran into this video being suggested to me due to the fact I believe I’m going to end up driving a 2009 1.4 petrol Astra as my first car, I absolutely loved the jokes and the skits woven into factual information. Then I was gob smacked by the fact you don’t have nearly as many subscribers as I thought you would. Stick with it and you will hit gold, no doubt about it.

      On paper the golf and on tarmac it'll probably depend on which breaks last (golf?!?!).

    Heard the SXI is a vast improvement on this regular Corsa, it doesn't have a speed warning that sounds like a carbon monoxide detector when at 70mph

      That does sounds like an upgrade, I heard Whitney Houston was a big fan of SXIs too...

    I've got a 2011 Corsa for my first car. 87k miles. 5 door. 1.4 so the insurance is very high 😅. But it's a great car and once the insurance starts to go down it will be very economical for me.

    If this is a petrol, the sound at 2:46 is REALLY bad unless it's tuned with sound change. The Petrol opel engine is SO clean in noise that this would have to be an engine getting into the trash state to make such a bad sound (super old cars with no repeated repairs). Or maybe 3 cilinder 65hp but that ons is damn rare (and if you drive normal revs no way it makes that sound).
    Ps i love mine.

    Looking to buy a 2008 Corsa Club, automatic. 1.2k purchase price, is it worth it? 95k miles, not moved in a year... Everyone tells me automatic repairs are more expensive, how true is this?

    • @RHanson.
      @RHanson.  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's a pretty decent price! Mileage is okay... Not moving in a year doesn't sounds ideal though, won't have helped the car. Automatic cars are basically more complex so it can cost more, but of course it depends on what breaks, if it's related to the gear system etc, so yes it can be true. Corsa parts aren't too expensive compared to other cars tho, which helps.

      So like i said when im saved enough i will be buying a volvo or a Mercedes but for the youngsters i would recommend a volkswagen golf or a ford focus or a volvo s40.
