I have just started to look at buying a corsa and narrowed it down to 3 choices.
Would any one be kind enough to explain the difference between the 3 cars mentioned in the title.

sport - 1.4 or 1.6 16v.

flair has less power (i think), and a colourcoded interior design
sri has either 82bhp or 88bhp depending on the engine and a polka dot interior,
sport has 88bhp (or 106bhp from the 1.6) and better interior and spec than the sri, and is newer...

The sport is just the new version of the SRi, it came with the facelift version of the corsa which was in 1997 if thats right. The SRi came in 8v and 16v, both the sports from 1997 onwards were 1.4 16v and 1.6 16v.
I don't know much about the flair.

early sports had the sri interior, the faded spots came in with the facelift model in 96/97
