What type of speedo is it? Electric starts at 0mph and cable starts at 10mph.

Answering this would take a lot of guesswork out of the equation.

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!
