Vauxhall Corsa
I borrowed one of the new Corsa models for two days last week and to use Angus Fitton's expression, I was seriously underwhelmed. For the driver it has to be one of the worst small cars around. The steering felt as though it was connected to the wheels via a series of rubber bands. This Vauxhall feature continues my opinion of previous Corsas with a similar rubbery steering. The ride can only be described as jittery and the engine always very audible. Having driven one, I cannot understand the positive reviews that this car gets. On the positive side, the gearchange is an improvement on the previous Corsa and it did feel well put together and was well equipped.
I currently drive a 56 plate Astra with 'Easytronic' tranmission which is also not very impressive to drive and feel that Vauxhalls are very overrated.
