Opel Corsa VIN check

Asking prices from 24,050 European listings. The typical column is the median — half the cars advertised that year ask less, half ask more. The range is the 10th to 90th percentile, so it shows what condition, mileage and trim are worth on top of the year alone.

A 2026 Opel Corsa typically asks EUR 20,199; a 2016 car asks EUR 7,454, about 63% less. A car priced well under its year's range is usually telling you something — high mileage, a category write-off, an import with a history you cannot see from the advert, or an odometer that has been wound back.

Median odometer reading by model year, from the same European listings. Use it as the reference point for the car you are looking at: an odometer far below the median for its year is the single most common way a used car is misrepresented in Europe.

A 2021 Opel Corsa typically shows 68,000 km — roughly 13,600 km a year. A VIN check compares the readings recorded against that specific car over time, so a reading that went down, or a gap that is too clean, shows up as an inconsistency rather than a guess.

What is actually on the European market, from 24,050 listings — not the full factory options list, but the mix a buyer will really be choosing between.

Most common displacements: 1.2 L, 1.4 L. Median advertised output: 100 hp.

From the EU's mandatory CO₂ monitoring dataset — every new Opel/Vauxhall Corsa registered in the EU is counted here. Registration volumes show which years and engines were actually popular, which is what determines parts availability and resale demand later.

CO₂ figures are registration-weighted averages across all trims of that year, on the WLTP cycle where the year has it and NEDC before that. Your car's own figure depends on its specific version.

91 recall campaigns naming this model are on file. A recall is only a problem if it was never carried out — the check that matters is whether this particular car was fixed.

• The DV5R engine may experience a loss of power due to slippage of the water pump pulley. This slippage can cause misalignment of the timing belt, potentially resulting in engine shutdown. The sprocket of the water pump pulley may detach from the shaft, which can lead to the loss of parts on the road and increase the risk of accidents and injuries. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems…

  Risk: Injuries
• The vehicle may have contact, or insufficient clearance (< 10 mm), between the petrol particulate filter pipe and the terminal protection cap of the 48 V belt starter generator. In wet conditions, the insufficient clearance and possible contact between these components can lead to water infiltration, causing an electric arc, that could trigger a thermal event, such as overheating, which may lead to fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of…

  Risk: Fire
• In the event of an accident, the passenger airbag may not open as intended. The protective effect of the airbag is therefore impaired. In the event of an accident, there is an increased risk of injury. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

  Risk: Injuries
• The malfunction indicator light (MIL) may fail to illuminate if the diagnostic system of the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and/or the diesel particulate filter (DPF) malfunctions after a fault code has appeared. This could cause the vehicle to operate without the required warning, and resulting in emissions above the regulatory limits. The product does not comply with the Regulation on type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles…

  Risk: Environment
• The vehicle may have a fuel leak in the high-pressure hose, between the high-pressure pump and the rail, because of loose nuts. This may cause a fire in the vehicle. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such…

  Risk: Fire
• Due to oil carbonisation and high contact pressure, the 7 mm camshaft chain resistance can be reduced. This may cause the camshaft chain to break, leading to an engine failure. This can cause a loss of vehicle's control and increase the risk of accidents and injuries. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
