Daughter is considering a Corsa C (2003) Elegance petrol with 48k on the clock and full service history, from a dealer. What should she look out for and what are the common faults with this car?
Creaking rear suspension (more of a feature than a bug); VIN plates/numbers present and correct; dash lights spanner/emissions/SRS/ABS come on properly and in correct sequence; 1st/2nd gears can be engaged without too much force; steering not light in one direction only.
No idea what your daughter's budget is and no idea how much a 2003 Corsa goes for. Just want to say that I was amazed by the prices - i.e. much cheaper than in dealerships - of new and pre-reg Corsas in Motorpoint.
It was the same with Micras and the small Citroens.
