So the Corsa is not in any regard an agile car at speed. On a straight road, travelling at a high-speed, making sudden movements, for example, dodging a guinea fowl, will easily have you roll the car. “the Corsa is famous for having her rear window spontaneously explode” The 2004 Opel Corsa Lite 1.4 And I feel like I can now get around corners with a fraction more momentum. The car also suffers from under-steer, and going around corners that would be normal and safe in a Tazz for example, often left me with a frown on my face, and passengers, such as my granny, screaming.Ī lot of the squealing tyre issue was solved by putting normal tyres onto her. When going along De Waal drive, which is most likely my favourite road in CT, on those eco-tyres, she would squeal like a petrified piglet. And it’s not too hard to actually push too far.
At the same time, I hate it, since it can do rather alarming things when you push it too far. Great in the fact that it travels from point A to point B with no issues at all. “she would squeal like a petrified piglet”Īnd for what it is, it’s great. At the time if I’m not mistaken, it was the cheapest car one could buy new. It came with nitrogen filled eco-tyres, a mp3/cd player, with two speakers (one in each door) and little else. I’ve even driven a Corsa that always, and I mean always, sliced my hand open when I used the window winder.īut this review will be done on the Corsa in my garage, bought by my brother brand new in 2004.
Some of them feel very loose and twitchy on the road, others feel stiff. Before I say anything thing about this Corsa, I need to be honest, and say I’ve driven quiet a few Corsa’s, and never once has any of them driven the same as the other.
