This 1988 Opel Corsa A 1000 S "Viva" series of French origin is a 3rd hand with 52,500 km, although the actual mileage is 152,500 km (5 digit odometer, see mileage chart gallery). The seller indicates that the car is in good general condition and has had recent and regular maintenance. This Corsa was purchased from its 1st owner in 1994 by the seller's great-grandmother, then owned since 2018 by her grandmother.

On the outside, the car is in good condition. The paint in its white color has visible defects in the gallery (scratches, traces of small impacts, paint delimitation, some elements having been repainted). The exterior plastics and seals are in good condition, as are the headlights. The seller indicates that this Corsa is sound despite some surface rust, pictures of the underbody are available in the gallery. The hollow bodies as well as the side, front and rear rocker panels have been treated and protected preventively. It has window deflectors, the accessory grille of the TR versions in body color, grey piping and the manufacturer's mud flaps (never installed, supplied for sale).
