I HAVE JUST REALIZED !!!....In 1993 when the corsa was released ...its predecesor was the nova from 1986 -1993...Now i love corsa's and they are hands down winners of the hot hatch catagory..with competition from saxo,106,clio etc etc and i would have a corsa over any of those any day...... YET ... it dawned on me the other day.... .....how poo corsa's really are compared to the NOVA...honestly The nova was a pure revolutionary car and they age so much better than the corsa.....as a corsa owner im not saying that i think the corsa is bad coz i think they are great but ... they aint as good as the nova at the end of the day are they !!!!most people who i have expressed this opinion to have laughed and taken the piss..but as a vauxhall nut ..i can honestly say the NOVA is just ..so much better ..... maybe sell ma corsa to get one really !!!! ..opinions please????
Matt Neal for the championship ....woo off to thruxton next sunday !!!

i guess they are ok....but i dont like drivin in a box with edges sharp enough to shave a superhereos equally square jawline. lol

yeh novas r well nice..and can look propa nice...but personally i prefer the looks and styling of corsas..dont liek the novas interior lol..so if i had one it wud def be stripped out.
i just realised that if u push in the seat belt latch inwards on the B pillars that they adjust in height!! wow! lol...taken like 3 years of drivin the car to figure that out! took like year and a half at least to realise that u pull the headlight switch towards u to turn on the interior light without opening the doors lol

Took me ages to realize how to turn the dam thing off xD
well to begin with wen the 1st corsa was released it was essencialy just a nova with a diffrent body, same running gear and most of the same engines.
was only as it got older it got tweaked and bits updated that it turned in to the corsa as we know it,
simmlar to toe latest corsa b,s and the 1st corsa c,s aside from updated inteior and updated electronics its essentialy the same,
usualy the case with most cheap cars as its dosnt cost the company as much to just redisgn the shell and sell it as a new car lol

lol 3 years! Even for me, that only took me about 8-10 months to figure out what it was for. lol
