Two comments here, one on diesels, one on Corsas. Had a Focus TDCi as a hire car recently, and I couldn't believe how quick it was from a standing start - something diesels have never usually been noted for. Trouble was, it still made awful diesel noises all the time, so it won't be on my shopping list. As for Corsas, I hired a 1.2 petrol one for a few days last year. When the bloke reminded me I would be responsible for any speeding tickets, I laughed and said "what, in 1.2 Corsa". "You'd be surprised", he said, and I was - it didn't half move for a little 'un. Great engine, smooth and quiet too, but frankly the rest of the car was rubbish.
