:lol: get your wallet out and get down to your local vauxhall garage, auto factor or breakers yard. i've never herd of anything to stop leaky fuel tanks, i wud imagine the fuel would probly disolve or prevent any sealant from doing its job. as for your middle box you can get exhaust tape which you simply wrap around your exhaust that might sort it.
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!
