Recently bought a 93 c16xe gsi.
Which has a manual sunroof, electric mirrors, electric windows and red bump strips on the doors.
I always thought the earlier models came with winder windows with manual mirrors and no sunroof.
So I just want to know If these were optional extras from vauxhall?
Also about these red bump strips. Are the DEFO and extra from factory, as if they are then they are staying on but if not there coming off lol

Sunroof and electric windows and mirrors all options.
Bump strips were never a factory option, they're an early SRi part, there are two types, some go the length of the door with the SRi badge above, yours are the other type which are shorter with the badge in-line.

Really good to see a post about someone buying a corsa b. Looks better than the generic finance cars on here.

Stripes actually work. Plus they will serve a purpose on the shopping run!

Mine has every option minus the side strips, but as said will come in handy on a shopping run, I tend to hide mine out of the way.
Looks like a nice example

I have a '95 X16 GSi with no sunroof, manual windows, aircon and elec mirrors. Not sure if Aussie spec ones are different.
Seen a few GSi's knocking about with no GSi kit on

I'd fit cesaros.
They're common on the internet, but I've never come across a corsa with them on the road

All the corsa's I have owned have had a little dent identical to that on one of the wings, makes me wonder how the hell they get there

I'm still in love with the original wheels. Although there mint might just get them returned and a powdercoat. With some good tyres

Looks nice that. I'd keep the red stripes and the wheels but get the wheels done anthracite.

1st pic looks brilliant, 2nd pic it looks too high at the rear.
I would fit the 6 spoke wheels (not sure why they get called Cesaro's) but with lower profile tyres.

Nice GSi, getting rare these days. Keep the 3 spokes and as you said lose the sticker. Are you going to get the dent removed? doubt it would be expensive as from the pics looks like a paintless repair.

Nice gsi that. Wonder if the stripes were a dealer option. They look like they have been put on well.

Looks nice that. Id leave the bump strips on, not many about with the red ones anymore.
Standard wheels look good too, only like Cesaros me without centre caps
