Opel Corsa 5-door caught by Autoblog in Spain

How often does it happen that a manufacturer sends a preproduction prototype home with an engineer who happens to live a few doors down from one of our own? Not often, so imagine Alberto's big surprise when he spotted this down the street in Spain, a 2007 Opel Corsa 5-door that's not scheduled to officially debut until next month at the British Motor Show. Alberto's trigger finger went crazy on the Corsa snapping no less than 17 crystal clear, high rez photos. Check it out and let us know if you think GM should import the Corsa instead of the larger Astra to replace the outgoing Ion. General Motors has already released official pics of the 5-door Corsa ahead of its debut, but we appreciate the closer look provided by Alberto's lens.
