2003 Opel Corsa Excellence review from Greece
"Generally good, but very disappointing gearbox"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Have had continuous trouble with the gear box (which my son, who purchased the same car one month after me, also has.) Often unable to engage first gear, especially first thing in the morning.
Indicator lights flash erratically, most times too quickly, sometimes correctly. Seems to depend on the temperature outside. None of the bulbs need changing, but the Opel representative is unable to find and fix the problem permanently.
General comments?
Apart from the above problems, like the feel of the car, it is just the right size for a town with very narrow streets and few parking places.
