Drove one, last year, for some 400 miles, travelling from Barcelona to Motorland for the first round of the WTCR/ETCR and, while it wasn’t a top of the line, I loved it. Easy to get used to it, pretty intuitive for what I want, and pretty economical. And style-wise, the Pug stands out immediately but the more I look at it, the less I like it. With the Corsa, it’s the opposite. And I can’t stand the two-storey dashboard of Peugeot…
I'm French so I went for a 2021 Renault Clio 5 Tce 90 with a 6-speed manual transmission. This is a very pleasing car to drive. The engine is fabulous, torquey and very economical with 6 Liters in average consumption (sorry, no MPG in France). The interior, even though it is almost the base trim, Zen but with options like fog lights or 4 electric windows, feels solid and well built for the kind of car it is. I would 100% recommend the Clio to anyone looking for a super-mini car because it is trully the best in class. And with higher trim levels, it feels like a premium car with soft materials everywhere in the rear of the cabin, including on the door panels. The infotainment system id very well made and wired Android Auto works smoothly. Us French, we know how to make good super-minis and this Corsa is basically French 😊😊
I've been driving for 55 years in the UK, Adrien, and out of the 17 cars I have owned,8 have been French. Part of the attraction was the comfort, with soft seats and compliant suspension. I currently have a Clio E tech which I love but my main gripe ( which in fairness applies to most cars in this segment) is that,for me, the seats are too firm. I am not sure why this should be. Perhaps it has something to do with manufacturer's (and reviewer's ) obsession with handling - even Renault,I by their own admission, have stiffened the suspension on the latest Clio which does slightly effect ride quality. Only Citroen seem to be bucking the trend with their 'comfort' seats and softer suspension.
Got one as a loan car, I hated it to start off with but it’s grown on me. The 1.2 turbo is impressive. Has great low down pull, definitely recommend it!
I’ve got a 1.2 turbo hire car of this whilst my 1L vetec civic is in the garage. Let me tell you, the 1L Honda is far quicker, far more sporty and feels more expensive. The Corsa engine to me is a pig unless you rev it off limits, 5 gear manual I’ve got on hire, need to drop to 4th to overtake lorries, 5th is dead, whereas my civic will pull in 6th gear. To me these are an excellent first car as you can’t go quick enough to crash. Sound system is good, interior is cheap.
I hired a brand new one the 130bhp version for the day whilst holidaying in Ireland just before Christmas and I thought it was a cracking car. I stand at 6'4" and had no comfort issues at the end of my time with the car although nobody could sit behind me except a small child.
I've had a Corsa Griffin 1.2 turbo for a year, and love it. Fun to drive, comfortable, reasonable fuel economy, and plenty of toys i.e. parking sensors, heated seats & steering wheel, rear view camera, electric folding mirrors, plus others. I had a 1.2 non turbo as a courtesy car when mine was in for service & the difference in power is very noticeable.
According to EuroNcap's test results, the Corsa is safer in a car crash than the Peugeot 208, whose instrument panel turns out to be dangerous for the safety of the passengers in an accident. And the Indicators on Peugeot 208 with LED headlights are very difficult to see... dangerous... And Corsa is also available with Matrix... headlights... The Corsa also has other seats in the expensive models and is a much more skilfully executed design than the Peugeot 208, which has several serious design flaws in the design from behind and in profile from the side. But if you only go for a "general impression" and don't look at the details... and stop and think... you will not see these errors. In addition, the Corsa has lower air resistance and slightly lower weight, which gives a longer range for the electric car than the Peugeot e-208. Although the official figure says the opposite, but that figure is completely wrong. The Corsa is therefore a better car than the Peugeot 208.
As a Polo owner, I had the great fortune to drive a Corsa on a recent trip to the Amalfi Coast and I must say, I quite enjoyed it! Great seats, sporty seating position, and overall a pleasurable feeling. The Polo, mind you, still feels a class above but I fully understand why the Corsa is so darn popular. On a side note, on my Italian drive, Corsas on the roads outnumbered 208's by a ratio of 50:1 (!)
I've got the newer corsa 22 plate I find it quite good fun to drive this is my second corsa and I find the newer ones are a longer than its predecessor general motors. I find it good to drive I've got the basic model without the mod cons such as heated seats heated steering wheel they have a perfectly good heater for the cold winter morning and air con for the summer months. I also found whatever model you go for the more it costs I would highly recommend anyone who's looking for a new corsa is to try before you buy.
Own a 22 Nav which is well equipped and I really enjoy it, though 2 comments - 1) The rear passenger area has no light, so when getting in the back at night you have to fumble for the seat belt anchors, 2) If you use the seat warmers and don't switch them off at the end of the journey, switching the engine off doesn't switch them off, so when you restart the car the seat heaters are still on.
With all due respect Rebecca, whether you are in the UK or the USA, it's a bit of a squeeze to operate a vehicle given the increased cost of fuel. Value for your money can't be underrated . 🤔👍🤗😘
We have a really good privately run Vauxhall dealer in our local market town . Or a national brand Peugeot dealer somewhat further away. The latter is typically faceless , expensive with a reputation for poor service. So Vauxhall it is every time . They are good cars and your faint praise Is unfair
I ask the same question- I had one for a month and it is just so average (1.2 100 Ultimate)! Average is fine if it is cheap, but it isn’t. I can’t understand why buyers of this don’t go for the Sandero instead
I work for a rental company and driven dozens of these. Nicely equipped & not bad to drive, if a little dull inside. However, as with many vauxhalls the build quality and reliability has been an issue..
Hmmm... I think you're be a tad disingenuous with your description of MPG figures for the Corsa versus the Polo... which might therefore incorrectly dissuade a potential buyer from considering the Vauxhall. You were driving the 8-speed automatic Corsa, which, indeed does mid / late-40s mpg, yet you were quoting non-comparable manual-gearbox figures for the Polo which, yes, does over 50mpg. In fact, your own website reviews on those 2 cars - both with manual gearboxes - states that they will both achieve around 50mpg 'real-world'.
Provided that you avoid the smallest engine (sub 100 PS) all of these superminis are a refreshing and well planted change from cross overs. Modern superminis are quite heavy though, so 75 PS is simply not enough. These cars are as heavy as Ford Sierras were in the 1980s … quite a thought.
It's difficult to believe the CarGurus actually gave a Vauxhall a fairly favorable review! They usually are condescending and nitpicky about everything when it comes to Vauxhall vehicles.
Rightly so! Vauxhall-Opel vehicles are so dull and average in every respect - which would be fine if they were cheaper than the better competition, but they’re not.
@@th-l8936 Yet they are some of the top selling vehicles in their categories and have thousands of repeat buyers. Those buyers were obviously satisfied enough to spend a significant amount of money buying a new one. Nobody pays anywhere near the asking price for one either unless the have the negotiating skills of a head of lettuce.
I swear this presenter has shares in Ford, every video she bigs up ford? Boring and predictable reviewer. The Corsa is a smashing car and is obviously selling a lot to be the best selling car in 2021.
As new "affordable" cars go, I'd say both this (so long as it has the black contrasting roof) and the Peugeot 208 are about the best looking out there. Vauxhall puts more effort into their marketing than the rivals and the after sales seems impressive in comparison.
What does "Fun to Drive" actually mean? Is driving to and from work in traffic fun in any car? Easy to drive with light controls or Difficult to drive because you cant see out, or something with actual meaning and reasoning. Fun to drive means??? and why?
A car that is fun to drive to me is one that you enjoy driving in any circumstance. Good weight to the steering, reactive punchy engine, goes around bends nicely without throwing you about.
@@Daveodaddeo101 unfortunately I've had a Vauxhall and will never buy another! I initially fell in love with the shape and the drive, smooth engine. Lasted all of a week when it broke down, battery had lost so much charge from driving around the corner? Garage did nothing. Then coil packs failed, then issues with the gearbox. The garage was useless, only positive we got a courtesy car. It wasn't a new car when we bought it so couldn't reject it even though we tried several times, not fit for purpose. after five long years of ownership and only approx 10k miles we got rid just before the bulkhead failed!!!! Shocking car!
i have this exact model in the red/black paint, not a bad car but i hate the roof slope on the front door, forever banging or scraping my head when getting into the car.. the electrics on the radio/dash tend to play up, though there has been a recall about this.. i traded my mazda 3 in for this car... in hindsight something i would never have done had i known what i know now.
I don't know if it is just me but I find all cars in this segment to have hard and uncomfortable seats, certainly for my meagre frame. What ever happened to soft,comfortable seats like the old Chrysler Alpine and Horizon which were basically French cars? I drove a previous generation Corsa as a courtesy car and the seats were awful. I can only hope the new Corsa is better in that respect.
Fords i luv especially the old focus mark1, was never keen on fiesta's, had 1 as a courtesy car and until they sort the wetbelts out its a no go even tho corsa's some have same wetbelt issue..they're cheaper to change than fords...

But if you are buying used you'll probably get a Corsa that's five years newer than the civic for the same money. The civic is a great car and not that expensive really but you can't really compare the two.
Will this category of combustible engine car be the last group to survive the transition into the green era of motoring because of their affordability and that they are economical... Time will tell.
Why do cars seem to get bigger as time goes by. I own a Corsa C from 2003 ( still going strong ) and its tiny in comparison. It's the same with the Golf. Huge compared to the original from the 1970's.
Just like the 208 but without the stupid dashboard, its a winner. Who'd have thought the Stelantis merger/takeover would end up with Vauxhall finally making a decent Corsa.
Worst car I ever owned was a Corsa 2004 version. So I don't care how popular they are now I couldn't chance buying another. I owned the Corsa for 6 months and it was only 1 year old and was being repaired for about 8 weeks of the 6 months. Vauxhall lent me an Astra for 4 weeks while they "fixed" the Corsa. When I got it back it had the same problem. Never again.
@@trismegistus2881 Yeah it probably is more roomy than a fiesta. I've driven the 2020 corsa and its comfortable in the drivers seat. But try and sit in the passenger seat without it all the way back. The passenger footwell is stuffy on the RHD corsa at least. Rear head room isn't great either as a 6ftr but could be worse.
Yipee now that is good news to my ears, Rebecca announcing the Ford Fiesta is better than the Corsa and I agree it looks far less fun to drive than mine, which I can chuck into corners and feel safe in but then I've had four years of practice. Cheers Rebecca.
I don’t get it. I’ve been the unfortunate owner of an e-Corsa for the last 3 years and it has been a nightmare. The small battery - that was my fault, I should have known better but the amount of electrical problems it’s had - that’s all Vauxhall. Constantly in the garage, the key constantly looses link with the vehicle and it won’t open, always blinks and twitches with random dash lights coming on and going off. Lights randomly stop working, screens freeze. I could go on.. the petrol version of this that I get from the garage when it goes in to have issues resolved - it’s just horrible? Huge, ugly gear stick, sounds like a diesel and the drive is just horrible. The A pillars also mean that there is a huge blind spot when u pull out of a non standard junction, I even nearly missed a bus once in the blind spot - I kid you not. The Corsa used to be a nice small sporty car, this thing - come on… it’s the size of an Astra, and it’s just horrible.
Great review as always but I really wish you would include the country of manufacture which will sway many people who like to buy British built whenever possible even though the parent company is not British.
Odd statement. The more powerful version of the Golf GTi, the Clubsport, has a 7 speed auto as standard. A manual box isn't an option. You just haven't driven a good one yet......
Lots of them on the road my isn’t doing too good had issues where I haven’t had before with any of my car, infotainment sys freezes, parking assistance Faliure, vehicle traction control fault etc tbh I had enough, never go for a Vauxhall again 👎🏻
I think it's a classy design, I think Vauxhall gets too much bad stick from the press
This review omit to mention Hyundai i20, although it´s not so great looking inside, its practicality challenge C segment hatchbacks.
Were does she draw the line...Peugeot and Fiesta are Sister car and key rival in U.K. Hyundai just a segment rival
