Hey, just a quick question, does any Corsa B's have ABS? I know it's probably already been asked, but I want to know for sure.

Thanks for reading,

Mike.

it was an option on every model when new apart from the pre 97 i think, certain models before 97 came with abs, but dont quote me on that lol i know ive got it on mine but was an option when i was purchased new..... i suppose the better spec one's came with it as standard

Ahh, yeah, I was looking on AutoTrader for one but none of them say they have ABS, i'm not really bothered about it, though. Thanks for the answer

Oh, and hardly any of them have a drivers airbag

lol yeah again its still an option when it was new lol, but i looked at the star rating and it still got 3 stars without airbag or abs lol unlike the saxo 2 star lol
