its mint, handles ten times better than the corsa, but not any room in the glove box, and no door pockets!

and the weirdest thing is, when you shut the boot, and passenger window opens a bit to egalise pressure how randoms that

similair to 'very' early corsa's, the lil air-vents under the b-pillars were put in as when the boot was shut or a door was shut hard, the rear window would blow out!

why cant you just accept it handles better than my corsa? the body is different, the weight distribution is different, and it handles better
