Is the Vauxhall Corsa SXI a good car?
Although the Vauxhall Corsa SXi gets sporty-looking equipment and has a choice of petrol or diesel and manual or automatic gearboxes, it just can’t keep up with its rivals. It feels very dated and isn’t the best to drive in this class either – we’d recommend a Ford Fiesta Zetec instead.
Is the Vauxhall Corsa SXI TwinPort worth buying?
It is an easy-to-drive supermini that is cheap to run and insure. It is a safe choice, but lacks the fun factor, and falls short of its competitors. The car we reviewed was a Vauxhall Corsa SXI Twinport with a 1.2 litre 16 valve engine. It was standard spec with alloy wheels fitted.

This sees fuel economy improve from 51.4mpg to 56.4mpg, and CO2 emissions fall from 129g/km to 117g/km. Despite returning respectable economy figures, the Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 SXi isn’t exactly cheap for a supermini thanks to an asking price of around £13,500.
What engines are available in the Mitsubishi Corsa?
