a common fault on the corsa is the coils breaking down when hot ?? try replacing these .. another common fault is the camshaft sensor .. both of these faults would give the symptoms you describe .. i personally would go for cam sensor first .. seen this hundreds of times in my previous life as an RAC roadside tech
