1999 Vauxhall Corsa Club 1.2
Summary:
It's economical and cheap to run
Faults:
The car runs fine normally, but has started cutting out after about 15 minutes and when it reaches normal running temperature, and it won't start for about 1 hour.
General Comments:
The car runs fine, when it's running, and it's obviously a very cheap car to run.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I have also got a Vauxhall Corsa 1.0 litre. It is a T plate and was made in 1999. I bought the car in January 2005 and for the first few months I had no problems with it. Then in November I had to change the disc brakes and pads, when I had only have done 48,000 miles. Then after that the engine management light came on because the idle valve went. That cost me £68 to replace and that did not include fitting. The valves in these cars also go wrong. Then after I got this fixed the timing chain pad went costing me around £20. Apart from these issues the car always starts up when I need it to, so overall the car isn't that bad, but I would not get the same model again.
