Yep i also have problems with the corsa as its keyless entry, so make sure battery is topped up or charged!!!
And i need an ice scraper indoors as the alarm wont pick up the keyfob through icy windows so need to scrape the ice of first!!
Tyres pressures, all lights and keep hold of a spare set of headlight bulbs and tail bulbs
that should be about it!!

If you do this make sure you check your wipers arent stuck to the screen or it will rip the rubbers out when the wipers move

Make sure you get your anti freeze in. First frosty day here i noticed my Radiator was leaking and basiacally was shagged.
Had to fork out for a new one and fit it on saturday to replace it. I then put the anti freeze in after
