opel B or opel C?

I'm pretty sure that's the B. Although I thought the C started production in 2005.

The 4 door hatch is the C.

My '02 1.6 GSi was the B model. My current '06 4-door 1.8 GSi is the C model.

I've also got a 2004 GSI which just cost me R11500 for a service

Amazing cars to drive, but so expensive to keep it running nicely, although the same could be said for any car I suppose.
 
Thats a corsa B, the shape afte that is the Corsa C. I have a corsa B, love the car. My bro is gonna take it though.
 
It's a C, goes like this
A - 1983 to 1993
B - 1993 to 2000
C - 2000 to 2006
D - 2006 to present.

We might call it a B cause we never got the A, it's the same as Polo's we call the new shape the 3, but it's actually the mk 5, we never got the 1 and 2.
 
If you are planning to buy that Corsa B, dont. They are very troublesome with things like misfiring and things like that.

Rather get a Corsa C or look for alternates.

Wow, you just got ripped off, badly...
 
It's the Corsa Lite still technically a B though? Even though it was made after 2000 still?


Mine has been running since 2000 and has been absolutely bulletproof with almost 160 000km on the clock now and still on the original clutch and everything.

Biggest failures I had was the headlight switch going wonky and the hazard switch on the centre of the dashboard. Both were easy DIY jobs that cost a total of R300 to replace.

They obviously have the wrong info as the picture is a Corsa B, but the date (2006) suggests its a corsa C...either the year model is wrong...or the pic is wrong.

It's a Corsa Lite...I believe you can still buy them today. So yes it's a Corsa B but the model year and picture are quite correct.

Just like a Polo Vivo is the previous model Polo with some trimmings.
 
I had a 2006 Corsa B (Lite) and while it never gave me any trouble I would not buy another one, or easily recommend someone to get one. If you look at the prices you can get a Corsa D (Mk4) Essentia for then it would be silly to get a C or B.
