Typical corsa sport reply of why bother there are better cars out there. But yes, I haven't seen one on the road round here in a very very long time. Seen more Novas actually.

That's how mos of them are now, everyone is obsessed with buying the gsi then ripping it to bits.
I bet if you took a standard one to pvs you'd be in a very small minority if not by your self with one now

May as well, but I can't see there being much call for it, you can buy one with an ex for under a grand with tax and test

Engine power 78bhp and Torque of 148. Thats not right.

They are that rare in standard form I can only remember two being about the shows over here, and I haven't seen any in a long time. In

I thought they were a bit quicker than 9.8 to 60 aswell, that sounds more like a 1.4 sport.

Mines genuine with a few mods being exhaust, suspension and alloys, but nothing that couldn't be easily undone to make it completely OE.
Never seen another except at PVS and I don't think there was another white one.

I bought my first one with 54000 miles and was stored in a air tight bubble when I went to see it. Bought it for £2400, was my second car. Didn't have as much passion for them back then as I do now, crashed it and repairer made a total mess was traded in to vauxhall, worse mistake of my life. Was immaculate before the crash! Then my second on was totally rotten

When the cost of repair panels outweigh the cost of a low mileage shell in the same colour is it worth the hassle
