All corsa SRI's are becoming rare thesedays, BUT theirs still loads around tho! I had a white SRI and iv still got the chassis number and V5 for it here somewhere aswell. Buy it mate you know you want to! Is it a 1.4 16v? Or an 8v?
TURBO LAG IS JUST FOREPLAY ;)

I have had a red sri and a carabic blue sri (which I currently have now) the blue one is standard apart from the wheels, it has been sat on my drive for a while whilst I sort it out and random people drive past the house, pull over, knock on the door and ask if its for sale as they havent seen a standard one in years :D I paid £100 for it as it was FUBAR and I was offered £500 for it as a non runner a few months back.

I have never seen a white SRi in person before only the GSi, but to be honest, to me, no matter what colour an SRi or the GSi is, if its for sale it needs to baught :lol:
