<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Dont think either car is MORE reliable than another to be fair mark !!!
Regular maintenance will take care of that - its a father thing. More important to buy a car thats been looked after so reducing the risks of problems. Just in case i'd pay the AA / RAC fees for the year to make sure she is never stranded.
I beleive yours was brand new ( - most people cant afford to buy their kids a new car to knock the corners off.... ) so was probably less at risk of breakdown !!!
Never had reliability issues with any mates that had the corsa. But can think of a clio or two taking a much needed rest on a recovery truck...
