1997 Opel Corsa Swing review from Greece
"A rather decent small car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 12500 Km a leak from the car's refrigeration circuit was slowly draining the system of liquid. Needed liquid fill-up every 10 days;
The car's fridge was changed under guarantee; the problem recurred a year later. Final solution; a replacement plastic coated leak-prevention ring, at the tube connecting fridge and engine.
No other malfunction so far.
General comments?
Fast car;
The build quality is good;
Good brakes;
Mediocre road grip;
Does not negotiate steep turns well.
