The bit at the doors where the window frame joins the doors has cracked on my car. I was told that its a design fault and all corsas do that when lowered and that vauxhall fix it free of charge as long as the engine is standard. Is this true??

Vauxhall fixed mine for free when it was 4 years old, and didn't have a vauxhall service history. Pretty sure it is only cars upto 6 years old, although someone is bound to prove me wrong
