Opel is not UK.
Ireland covers Opel, as does Europe.
Did they actually do any black GSi's????? I didn't think they did make any?

They are.
This looks like the one that's been doing the rounds for a while and we have the same discussion every time.

I just done it for both a Vauxhall and an Opel and nothing can be found for M133 ELD.

Black was a colour option when ordering a an opel gsi in ireland.
I also believe there was a colour similar to the nova gsi silk violet

Hence the question mark.
And yes, and yes we still joke to this day every time we see one and how the internet non corsa owning IE world knew best...
Or didn't as it still stands today
As far as I knew, they never made black GSi's, deffo not for UK, but unsure on Irish market. I know Ireland use to get Frost Blue GSi's as well which the UK didn't get.

If its a Holden then surely it would be from either Australia or New Zealand then??

Indeed, as SA get Opels, not Holdens.
Holden is Aus based only as a brand, but sell the cars to other countries who sell them as other brands

It's showing on DVLA as holden anyway.

Ireland got a black GSi. To the best of my knowledge there is only one, and its mine! Can been seen here.
Ireland got very few GSi's, no one could insure them. A few of the serious Opel heads over here (its a small community of real die hards) reckon there was as few as 10 actual Opel Corsa GSi's sold in Ireland apparently.
But I can garuntee I have one of them and its black. Pics to follow if anyone is interested (doubt they are)

Yeah i'll have a nose, not something you see very often as most are "home made" and not really GSi's, always something missing, or been added on extra.
Same twin 3 spoke wheels?
I remember seeing a frost blue GSi on ebay, but it actually was in Ireland.

Is it a real GSi then or a replica?
The dash is grey with no MFD... surely that's not right is it?
