My old corsa B used to be scary as hell round the corners  . If you went round corners quick, you have to hold on to the steering wheel to stop you sitting on the passengers lap
Was the same on my mums v plate car oo with the "Lotus Uprated" Suspension.
New Cars 100 times better round the corners, and much nicer to corner in. Its got the uprated and lowered sports suspension too though, so that helps quite a bit.

Thank you Mav, I've had both a 1.2 standard corsa B which was shocking and was like a cat on ice, but the sport handles a lot better and the seats hold you in place a lot better.

right tell me if i'm sounding gay, but normally when a company develops a new car they improve on the old one.
Seeing as the old one was know to be shockingly shite, they changed it alot on the new one. by making the wheelbase longer, and changing the points on the suspension, and aload of other boring shite. Its still not great, but is better at speed. It setup just aint as soft as the old one.
Corsa C's are Poo anyway. Wouldnt touch one again

I've driven both. Personally, I'd say the c is better than the b standard. But modified, the b is much better.
