Is that an aftermarket sunroof? Doesn't look like the tilt/slide one?

Oh yeah, that's the only real negative I have found so far, no genuine sunroof

Gave it good jet washing today though and it doesn't leak

Just ordered a fresh clay bar and some products for my machine polisher so i'll be getting on to that soon I hope.

Never seen one on a Corsa before, only on Nova's, that's why I was surprised.

Do like white GSI's though, probably rarest colour.

Not a UK colour though is it

So, drove this around quite a bit yesterday, can confirm that standard Corsa brakes are awful

Apart from that it drives well, needs the front raising slighty (never thought i'd say that!) as it rubs like hell on the slightest bump.

Hoping it will be on the road at the end of the month all cleaned up.

TT felt like a super car this morning on the way to work

I found this car on ebay the ad title was just car. Looks in good condition. Are you going to break the other gsi or try and sell it whole.

Trying to sell as a whole to start with, would rather do that but we'll see how it goes, had a load of people tell me not to break and they would have the whole car on the facebook group, show them the pictures and don't hear a word

If it's not gone by next weekend I might give it a couple of days on ebay but then it's getting pulled apart.

Yeah, it's a decent price I think, going to put a few bits back on inside this week so it resembles a car again, only bit that's bugging me is I don't really want to leave it outside due the inner arch being exposed where we have cut the rot out. Ideally want it gone before the end of the month as the money from it is paying the insurance on the new one.

Fitted the standard head unit out of the grey one tonight in to the white one...will be upgraded but for the time being it's better than nothing...

Also probably wasted my time but put almost all the parts back on the grey one, makes it a bit more presentable I guess...

Not really a fan of any other kit than standard tbh, will be staying like this other than a semi smooth boot once it's painted next year.
