oh, im not just picking on this car, im picking on all new cars. the quality is shocking. yeah every new model has its hiccups, the corsa seems to share as many of these hiccups with all other small car sector and they seems to be growing.
like the c. they hae been recalled time and time again for the abs. they still cant fix it.

New cars are crap...and the reason they're all crap is because they are all the same car.
The new corsa is actually a renault. Every vauxhall i've ever seen has had the bonnet release on the drivers side...
Its the same as the Clio/punto/207/new fiesta
And if a water pump is goin after 5k, what happens when the warranty runs out and its getting to like 40/50k? Its gonna fall apart. they are made to be disposable!
Old cars are the way forward...back when they actually made cars, rather than putting them together with spit and chewy after 10 mins R&D.

The new Corsa actually shares parts with a Grande Punto, which incidentally is a very well built car.

so what your saying infact is, its not going to be a brand new corsa sxi in a couple of weeks but in fact a car with problems..im sorry but old cars have problems to, as well as new cars, every car no matter what make,model,age,where is made,how its made,etc will have problems at some points in its life, this is why we have garages and mechanics!yes if the car is pretty new your going to be pissed off that it needs to go for repair, this is why we have warrenty!
old cars can be shit as well, luckly i havnt had a problem with my corsa b since i had it, i know people who have had old cars, which some were in good condition some were not so good, still had endless problems, its just lucky of the draw when you get a new car, NOT AGE!

They are not all the same car? Punto and Corsa share the same platform and that it. You really think Ford and Vauxhall are going to get together to make a car?
