Not that it's the case with my B, but if you have an LET one for example and people expect it to be a slow old 1.2 8v and then it gives them a nice surprise

Thats what I find fun about having a Corsa,I enjoyed how it started as a standard corsa looking pretty shitty to what it ended up like and knowing I did the work myself, if that makes sense

Fair enough to both comments!
What I liked about my Corsa was the fact it got looks pretty much everywhere it went

in all honesty there isnt specifically something i really like about corsa's. it was just the ideal choice to put an engine into at the time. so bought one.

cheap to buy, cheap to modify, cheap to replace, 1000's of options for modifying, not the worst looking small car even for an older model

how you can spec them up quite well and the spec of standard sports is pretty good for its age, aircon, electric heated mirrors, 1 touch windows but can fit heated leather seats and electric sunroofs ect.
the sound of a 1.4/1.6 sport with the standard inlet on full throttle.
the looks of a corsa
how easy and cheap it is to make one quite fast
i love most things about corsa b's tbh and i would find it hard to pick one
