The Corsa capsule hatchback was put up for sale in St. Petersburg. The owner claims that the Opel was purchased new in 2005, then for 14 years it was driven only to the dacha in the spring and autumn, and since 2019 the car has not been used at all. A month ago, all fluids, oils, filters, tie rods and ends were changed, and new Nokian tires were installed.

The author of the ad believes that the Opel Corsa is in the condition of a new car. The hatchback has not seen winter or reagents, the original mileage on the odometer is 13.3 thousand kilometers, the condition of the body and interior is exceptional. The seller agrees to any inspections at the buyer’s expense and warns that “the price is valid until the end of the week.” Moreover, over the past two weeks, the car has fallen in price in two stages from 830 to 770 thousand rubles.

Although the Opel Corsa indeed looks completely complete and well-maintained, the interior shows the age of the model. But the equipment is decent: two airbags, air conditioning, heated front seats, power windows, power steering. But the technology is controversial: a robotic gearbox is connected to a 16-valve 1.2-liter engine (80 horsepower, 110 Nm) with Twinport technology.

The seller rightly claims that for that kind of money you can only buy a VAZ, and indeed: the basic Lada Granta liftback with a smaller set of options costs comparable (740 thousand rubles). However, the Opel Corsa C is by no means a collector’s car, so finding a capsule connoisseur may be difficult.
