check this out.

beware white is one of the hardest colours to match. most people who try end up with a corsa that like 5 shades of white.
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

cool, i saw you had problems with your suspension, did you eventually get that sorted? i might buy some new alloys in black coz the ones i have at minute are gsi 3 spoke alloys and them in black just would look good and i need to get a few things for it but need to find the best place to get them from really lol
