My mate had a Tigra 1.6 16v sport he loved it nice and fast. The interior is a bit basic though. Not much room in the back. Insurance will probably be higher.

well insruance for one will be more expensive for the tigra
corsa 1.4 16v grp 6
tigra 1.4 16v grp 9/10
Corsa 1.6 16v grp 10
tigra 1.6 16v grp 12
also tigras have only two back seats which are not even fit for use... nasty 
altho the tigra has better residuals than the corsa so that may be summin to think about 
oh but rember more kits and stuff around for the corsa too

tigra's aren't as common, and look sweet on a decent set of wheels

They're also more aerodynamic, which explains the higher top speed of the 1.6 Tigra (126mph) compared to the Corsa Sport (119)

I dont understand why people say the Tigra is girly at all. Just trend followers
The Tigra is the same as a corsa but with better areodynamics. Hence why the 1.4 16v can do 117mph, and the 1.6 16v can do 124mph (both 5mp better than the Corsa).
Given the choice, id MUCH rather modify a Tigra. Soooo much better design wise to modify. Longer, can fit a decent spoiler, 17"s, custom kit, more room internally to take rear seats out and fit ICE etc.
Its jsut better than the corsa, yet the same as the corsa.
Tigras are wicked.
Reason why she shouldn't get one.
It will beat you down the motorway! Thats the only reason she shouldn't get one

jealousy is the main reason cos i have seen tigra's with a spankin pair of 17's on it and it looked the doggies danglers, i have nothing against the tigra, i just cant afford one.
