The Rover V8 engine used Unified threads mainly UNC. Plenty of those
still around in Range Rovers, etc.

But I doubt you'd need then for your Corsa.

I've had a 1989 Rover Maestro and a 1988 Range Rover. They took metric
sockets.

If your 1988 Range Rover had the V8 engine, you're wrong. The engine
remained unified. Although the later bits like the injection system had
some metric.
