a big boot mate 
seriously, i would be amazed if you could fit 5 15"s in a corsa C, even with the back seats outs  i would say 3 tops......
but yea, obiously you need the subs and amps to power them. Your prolly gonna need 0/1 gauge cable and a split charge system with a upgraded alternator etc

depends how many subs you've got 
if its an odd number like 5 or 3, then the easiest way is to have one for the even lot and then a single amp for the the odd sub (so for 5 subs you would have 2 mono blocks).
However, it also depends on the subs ristance...are they 4 ohms or 2ohms, dual voice coil or single etc etc etc
wack up the specs of the subs and ill see what you will need etc

very true, 15s will need a fair sze box, are u going ported or sealed?
as for power as dom says its a problem as they all want the same power to them.
I'd say either an amp each or one big enough to run all 5 at the best load u can wire them to.
