Recently we tested the awesome little Opel Corsa-e. This time we have the epic little Corsa SRi running the efficient yet powerful 1.2 litre, 3 cylinder turbo engine. The size of this little Corsa mated with that engine, 8-speed auto gearbox with manual shift option and flappy-paddles makes for a fantastic little package. Responsive, nippy and a hell of a lot of fun.
Opel Corsa SRi is available for $36,990 with the current clean car rebate of $2,438.79 bringing it down to a very affordable $34,551.21. And I say ‘current’ clean car rebate because it is looking like that rebate will be scrapped soon for all vehicles running internal combustion engines, no matter how efficient they are.
