Hi everyone i recently joined the site but not yet posted on here. I owned a 1.4 sri corsa c, until earlier last month somebody decided to set it on fire!!! Anyway im possiably thinking of going for a corsa b just while i build some ncb up again etc, plus i was really impressed with how good some looked at pvs this year. I like the gsi but find it hard to find what i would call a 'tidy' one, or is that just me, maybe im not looking hard enough. Anyway what i wanted to no was im i better of getting a 1.6 sport and fitting the gsi kit onto it etc, or keeping looking for a gsi??? thanks

Absolute wankers mate 
Far more sports to choose from, whether you'll find a really clean one is another question, in most cases they will be cheaper than a GSI aswell. GSI's pop up on here frequently but they dont stay up for long, I would imagine a GSI would hold value better.

Just gotta keep your eyes peeled really, personally I think u should get a nice 2000 (x) reg sport in silver. Good suspension n 2.25' exhaust and it's ready  easy to find with service history etc

Gutted! Whos lass you been tapping on the side? 
As for B's, GSi in mint condition will be hard to find, not many about. Go for a Sport and make it a rep.

I'd say so, looking at the state of the road, and the poor black hedge

:s not good bud. I would get a sport and put a kit on it. Gsi's are hard to find mint. most knob heads have got hold of them and ripped them apart to bodykit and 18" wheel the poor things up.
