The Volkswagen Polo and Vauxhall Corsa have a
similar model range. The Corsa's 1.0L engine entry model doesn't offer any
advantages. You should check the rear visibility on the 3-door Corsa. The Polo's
boring. The Corsa's safer. Note the Polo isn't as expensive as pundits say it
is; only on car insurance.
