A lot of us now don't actually own Corsa's, but still return to the forum frequently!

Show us why you originally signed up...

My brothers (we paid £120 for it because it wouldn't run, put a new battery on it and replaced a turbo hose, used the wheels from the R5 behind and lowered it on Nova springs):



And my SRi (loved it!):

Yes no physical handle, button underneath the wing mirror which activates a solenoid and "pops" the door open. It was also possible to do this via my alarm fob.
