got one of them now, body shop has supplied it this time as it was them who didn't repair my car to decent standard and have to put it right at their cost.

what a load of **** this is, now i see who buys them crap corsas i had the other week, it must be people who have test drove one of these first. for the size i expected it to drive like a cinq or even a punto, but it dont its wobbles like a jelly driving it in a straight line on a flat road, it corners like one too (n)

why are people buying this crap? there must be better cars out there for the same money
 
They are terrible, and parts are dear because no one buys them and no second hand parts

My mate has a Kalos on a 57 plate which is now known as the Aveo which is like their Clio or Corsa equivalent

Got a cracking deal on it at the time - £3500 and it was one year old, he is not a car man in anyway shape or form, the price was the attraction rather than the car

Ran into the back of someone at low speed and needed a new headlight - £298!! Nearly fell over at that price but hands were tied as MOT is due so had to get something asap, been searching for over 6 months - not one Kalos in that time in the scrappers that wasnt front end damaged within 40 miles of my location

He needs a bonnet at some point and a second hand one is £120! His will pass its MOT in its current state for the time being

Theres only about 8 of these cars for sale nationally on autotrader as of last Friday night so you can see they are not big sellers

Certainly learned his lesson and will definately be buying a euro box next time, just for availability of second hand bits
