can you not just get one from a scrappies? look on ebay for someone breaking a corsa. dont buy a brand new set for more than 15 pound not worth the money tbh mate,

try ebay mate, if you get them to send you a bolt or a couple for spares for 2/3 pound then thats the best bet tbh mate,

go to marshals on thockly/newburn industrial estate, they've got the engines out the cars but they will still let you take bits off them, or if your quick just pretend your looking for something and pocket a few.
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!

not the bolt which you undo to let the oil out but the one which holds the sump to the engine
