Sounds pretty half decent, well if you can justify spending that sort of cash on a corsa. Think if i was him i would wait till someone is selling 2nd hand one. thanks

Ex demo cars or ones they give to the execs to have a play about in usually get sold after 6 months for nearly half the price they were originally.

Even now that they've axed the SRi? 
Could be because they are going to do a GSi, or perhaps because they've just run out of SRi body parts and don't want to order more since the C is being discontinued

a turbo corsa is going to have to happen, and it is penciled in for the Corsa D design, with companies like ford, VW, Renault all realising very quick cars in the coming year, vauxhall will have to do something.

Yep, for the 2006 Corsa the SRi has disappeared from the range. I was in the Vaux garage today and there's SXi and SXi+ now (basically the same but with half-leather seats and rear tints). 1.8 is in the SXi+. I reckon it's just because they've run out of SRi parts, but you never know - they could be planning something special to use up any SRi parts they have left lying around...
