My first car at the end of 2019 & still driving it to this day & made it my own. It's just a shame the stigma it gets because it's actually a good car especially these days.
@@ryanp5052 it is quite easy, there are a couple of bolts in the wheel arch and then 5 bolts underneath, then you can pull the bumper off, after that the grill just clips out and then the new one will clip straight in, I hope that helps 😀
I think I’d probably get a Vauxhall Corsa B GSI, I’d get that Corsa because my Mum used to own a Corsa B (not the GSI) and we both loved it; sadly, it got scrapped because it broke down. That may seem like a bad sign, but hey can easily fix it with the help of a Haynes Manual and a few parts.
i have one the mpg is terrible, unless u drive it like a sloth to actually get it up to speed you have to go to atleast 4krpm and when ur going 60-70 it sits at 4k so you just chew through petrol
@@Lol-ry5sh I personally prefer the mk4s as engines are bulletproof but along as itz been looked after can't go wrong? Just more whatever gets your insurances down the most I'd say
Font be turned off about what people say about this car people like to hate on them because of there stereo type I currently have one. Had it for just over 2 years now im thinking about selling it soon. However this car the limited edition is amazing if you want something that looks good as a 1st car. I sometimes look at my car and im like that looks good especially as a 1st car You can also modify them and add little bits and bobs. Its also got decent handling its quite comfy to drive sounds good for a 1.2 Alot better than my step dads kia picanto i learned in. It even comes with a aux cable for your music.
Awful car, chain or head gasket fails, so slow for a 1.2 and insurance isn’t even cheap considering because they’re so common and get thrashed and crashed so regularly. Get something quicker and more reliable like a Mazda 2 or Suzuki swift
Maybe you should start reviewing cars Josh, you seem to know more than most, and stuff I am yet to find out about my car. But thank you for watching the video about my ‘awful car’.
No young drivers should not buy this car. Its boring as fuck. I'm 17 and have a mk2 golf. Young drivers should get something cool and interesting because it is just so much more fun. Especially if you are planning to sink so much money into a project, at least sink it into something that will turn heads...
I'm 18 got this as my first car and it's perfect for the roads around me, they are just twisty backroads so you can basically just keep it pinned the whole time
Had one of these for my first car, you just gotta go along with the jokes and laugh at yourself. Low cost and never let me down, great first car.
what jokes?
i just picked up a 1.4 sri the start of this week...runs amazingly well, really happy with it,
Ive got a 1.2 corsa C my first car had it nearly 3 years now yes its slow and awful but ive bonded with it so much
popular for a reason! 1200cc is more then enough for a first car.

my wife bought a corse ecotec 1.0 and now my son has it. Keep it maintained and change the oil frequent and you'll have no problems.
Ah speaking of the corsa c, I still have one, mind yo it has a z20let in it
This car got me 12 points and a ban...Still my favourite car.
I bought a 2011 OPC with 66000kms a few days ago and it's been awesome I had a 2011 Grande Punto which was also a car that I loved a lot
Getting a 1.3 CDTi eco for my first car I’m 17 bare in mind and it’s practically the only nice car I can insure it’s still 2450 a year it’s crazy.
Idk wtf youre doing but that insurance is way too high.
@@civilizedpizza5902bro how do you get cheaper insurance? I'm going to be paying same rate as them on my limited edition. i am a 17yr new driver
Way too much power for a first car. 70 or 09 hp is too much so you deserve to pay through the nose for insurance.
the way petrol prises are i wouldnt mind one my self lol
Would rather of had this as my first car than the damn fiat seicento xD
vw scirroco
What are the best corsas for reliability in automatic in this shape?
They use a japanese automatic transmission as far as I know. So it should be reliable
I've got myself a corsa D 2014 face-lift and wondering how did you fit & find the front badgeless grill
Hi, they can be found on eBay, you will have to remove the front bumper to unclip the grill from the inside and then replace it 😊
@@nickmatthews8089 how easy or hard is that I got one in my watching and not sure

Good honest vid mate with no bullshit and all good advice for young lads to get on the car scene 👍👍
Crazy to think I’ve just brought a red limited edition, no mods and my insurance is £180 a month 🫠

I had a Vauxhall corsa twist same colour as a gsi loved my corsa had in 8 years till it was knicked and crashed

Where’d you get the black stripes on the bonnet please brother??
What other cars would be good for a 21 year old first time driver ?
Ford Fiesta, far better car
Fiesta but more expensive on insurance nowadays due to thefts or get skod fabia or vw golf
@@craig1996 wb a golf mk5 or siat Ibiza 2009?

All the corsa limited edition owners are now driving fiesta ecoboosts or st
The st is an ecoboost
@@NS-cv4mz I meant the 1.0 ecoboost or an st
I'm still driving my limited edition, 3rd year.
@@Lewis_Treff97Not for long, that engine is the worst engine ever made. A total pile of junk
@@paulas2610 I know. Who thinks a wet belt was a good idea 😂
My son has corsa e Ltd edition ther are poor for coil packs easy fix though

Alot better than my step dads kia picanto i learned in.
It even comes with a aux cable for your music.
These have gone up in price too
Would rather shit in my hands and clap
Whatever u do, DO NOT go for a turbo 1.4. They're so unreliable its unreal. Even the 1.2s arent great, just get a polo instead 😂
Polo is the same, 1.2 is better but 1.4 is horribly unreliable, I've seen them fall apart from everyone I know who had one
@@MrRohanThomas 1.4 still not as bad as corsas 1.4 tho 🤷♂️
Anyone knows where to get those beautifull led fog lights?
ever find out?
Scraping the barrel
My first car was one of those what a first car they are although insurance is high for a 1.2 lol
bcus insurance companies know its a car younger people buy and more accidents in them
It's mainly the popularity of the car.
1.2 na 80bhp top speed of what 100 or so, you didnt need to state it not being fast lol xD
Is this the other stuffs car?
wtf that sound that is made XD it hears like a turbo
I actually like the look but think it’s tarnished with the boy racer jokes ect ect
Good video but don't assume that young drivers don't know anything.
Honestly one of the worst cars I ever owned, consistent engine issues. Ended up head gasket failure on 80k miles. I’d recommend against.
If you get a black edition it will go much faster just cos its black 😂

Rust buckets.
Thank you for letting me know google, I’m sure you’ve spotted something I haven’t.
Too slow and not worth modding
Why would a beginner start with a fast car? Pretty dumb comment

Thank you very much for your opinion Stephan, I will be selling the car due to how much I value this comment.
