Hi all i love the corsa B ive had 11 of them over the years so i thought the corsa D 1.4sxi on a 07 with 5k on the clock would be a safe bet.... How wrong was i its total SHIT the inside looks cool but it sounds like a bag of spanners inside its had a new belt and the water pump is w@nked already door cover is falling off and keeps blowing bulbs.... now if i was reading this i would think this car has had hell but far from it. Its never been over 80mph or rev'd passed 4k'rpm its been loved... anybody else having problems.......

A belt and a water pump after 5k, it's either still under warranty and that's nothing more than an inconvenience or your talking bollocks.

How is it a pain in the ass? Take the car, leave it there for them to fix it and take a courtesy car off of them...

No, if you are a pikey and put anything less than a tenner in it won't register if you have run it down to the red.

Obviously a Friday car. Anyway, there are thousands upon thousands of owners that aren't having problems it would seem only you and Dave A have a problem. I suggest you take Dave's advice and purchase a Skoda.

Then your car is indeed shit. Take it back and get it rectified.
