Vauxhall Corsa SXi 1.2i

Firstly, i own a 2010 cos a sxi, which has 3 doors. It's important to mention that having 3 doors isn't very practical and there's not much room in the back either, which makes it really only suitable for younger families.

On the other hand, the corsa is a great looking little car. The six model come with the upgraded allow wheels, which really do make the car look a lot better in my opinion. The interior of the corsa, although early basic, feels tough and well put together. In the 2 years that i've owned my corsa i've never had a problem with it.

Going back to the negatives, my car is a 1.2 litre petrol. The car being so heavy and the engine being fairly small means at times the car feels underpowered and sluggish. SO if you have the option at least get the 1.3 diesel or 1.4 petrol. The heavy car also means a not very impressive mpg. Obviously mpg is influenced a lot by your driving style i manage to get around 40mpg around town and 50mpg on the motorway.

Overall, the corsa is a great little car. If i were to buy one again i would definitely go for a larger engined model with 5 doors, probably a diesel for the extra mpg.
